Flecainide acetate is used to treat certain types of irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias). It is an anti-arrhythmic. In general, it is used to regulate heartbeats of the upper heart and lower heart chambers. It can also be used to slow down an overactive heart.
Flecainide acts on sodium channels on the neuronal cell membrane, limiting the spread of seizure activity and reducing seizure propagation. The antiarrhythmic actions are mediated through effects on sodium channels in Purkinje fibers. Flecainide is a sodium channel blocker, binding to voltage gated sodium channels. It stabilizes the neuronal membrane by inhibiting the ionic fluxes required for the initiation and conduction of impulses. Ventricular excitability is depressed and the stimulation threshold of the ventricle is increased during diastole.
