Genuine question; why is amiodarone the last choice for meds?

What are the rotations you have as an internal medicine resident and how did you choose your speciality :)

Also what about Anticoagulation before the Shock? Is that a thing? Sorry if this is a dumb question

Diltiazem is much better than beta blockers.

Do you have to check liver enzymes prior to giving amiodarone in this situation if you were to give it

when would you go with rhythm control rather than rate?

Or do they only use that for when they have super ventricular heart rhythm.

Also good to keep in mind that digoxin is not fast acting and will take some time to work! They might sit there tachy for a little bit. Dilt IVP +/- an infusion is also quite effective for fast rate control as an alternative to metop

Amiodarone has very good rate and rhythm control. Usually A-Fib with RVR is dangerous because they have an increase risk of cardioembolic stroke. So usually the first thing in management is Anticoagulation

diltiazem for rate and amiodarone for rhythm, but you're right.....Amiodarone is a "dirty drug", not good at all for long term control.

I am currently studying for Step One but i came across a Tik Tok stating the 48 hour rule for AFib. If >48 hours begin anticoagulants and rate control (if hemodynamically stable). You need to check for thrombus in atrium prior to synchronized cardioversion. If 48 hours and follow treatment as mentioned above. Like I mentioned, saw this on another Tik Tok a few months ago, I don’t know if this is proper protocol. 😅
