Is it safe to take betapace opened up instead of taking the capsule? ## If your doctor or pharmacist have not said it was alright to do so, then I would avoid it, as some medications do not work as intended when they are released into the body all at once. ## I have been taking Betapace the brand name for 20 years because generic Sotalol does not work for me. This year my copay for 100 is $1200 and I don't know what to do? ## Betapace is not a capsule. It is an oblong pill.

It has PAC20 on it and it is white ## The pill in description is called Betapace. The active ingredient in Betapace is Sotalol; which is used in individuals with rhythm disturbances (cardiac arrhythmias) of the heart, and to treat hypertension in some individuals. Sotalol is used primarily to treat ventricular tachycardia as well as atrial fibrillation. You can view more information regarding Betapace, by visiting the link below...
