| In two randomized, crossover, placebo-controlled clinical trials of 16 weeks double-blind duration, 79% of patients with paroxysmal supraventricular [[tachycardia]] (PSVT) receiving flecainide were attack free, whereas 15% of patients receiving placebo remained attack free. The median time-before-recurrence of PSVT in patients receiving placebo was 11 to 12 days, whereas over 85% of patients receiving flecainide had no recurrence at 60 days.

| In two randomized, crossover, placebo-controlled clinical trials of 16 weeks double-blind duration, 31% of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation/flutter (PAF) receiving flecainide were attack free, whereas 8% receiving placebo remained attack free. The median time-before-recurrence of PAF in patients receiving placebo was about 2 to 3 days, whereas for those receiving flecainide the median time-before-recurrence was 15 days.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web | last = | first = | title = FLECAINIDE ACETATE TABLET [APOTEX CORP.] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=72595783-e6a0-6b7a-f428-9ca03d707794#nlm34084-4 | publisher = | date = | accessdate = 11 March 2014 }}</ref>
