Contraindications
Flecainide acetate is contraindicated in patients with pre-existing second- or third-degree AV block, or with right bundle branch block when associated with a left hemiblock (bifascicular block), unless a pacemaker is present to sustain the cardiac rhythm should complete heart block occur. Flecainide acetate is also contraindicated in the presence of cardiogenic shock or known hypersensitivity to the drug.
