scripted Rythmol. This is the first I've ever met him. The drug information says the first few doses of Rythmol should be administered in a "hospital-like setting". I was just given the script, start another 21 day Event Monitor and see you in 6 weeks. The coumadin dose I am to take for 3 days in the PM and then an AM blood draw on the 4th day. I'm not sure I am comfortable w/this and have an appointment w/my family doctor to discuss all this on Monday. I'm DEFINITELY NOT starting the Rythmol until I've re-started the Event Monitor. What is your "take" on this "hospital-like setting" business when first starting Rythmol?
