Fosamprenavir's FDA label of September 15, 2023 names flecainide in its contraindications section; the flecainide label PlainMeds reads does not name fosamprenavir. The fosamprenavir label: “Coadministration is contraindicated due to potential for serious and/or life-threatening reactions such as cardiac arrhythmias if fosamprenavir is co-prescribed with ritonavir.”
