Mexiletine is quite toxic. It is not used much because of this.

If you search here that word, you can read the posts of people who have tried it...and failed.

This medication is well known for burning the esophagus and in some cases very severely.

It is definitely one drug where the RISK is greater than the benefit. So do be careful.
