When Can I Stop Taking Tiykyson As Here Was No Experience Of A- Fib After Taking Medication?

i have been on Tiykyson for about 3 months. I have not experienced any problems with A-Fib since I started on medication. My question is, "Is it possible to be taken off Tikyson, or do patients normally have to take it for the rest of their life?"........

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

That depends on the cause of the condition / and other parameters like size of the atrium / co-morbidities and so on
Quite often it is a life long treatment
The treating doctor alone can suggest further based on his assessment of the situation.

Good luck
Take care     
Wishing all well
God bless
