Hello, I would like to get more informed about my mother’s health condition. She has been diagnosed with heart arrhythmia and this happened two years ago. Since then she has changed several medications in order to find the right one. At this moment, she is using sotalol and I have noticed she has gained a lot of weight. Did anyone gain weight as a side effect of sotalol?

You should know that sotalol has many side effects. Even though it is a quite effective medication when it comes to heart arrhythmias, it can also be very contra productive and even cause some more problems related to heart rhythm disorder. There are also allergic reactions, breathing problems, chest pain, nausea, appetite loss… I must admit that I did not hear of weight gain as a side effect, but I guess it is possible.
