New evidence of Darvocet and Darvon heart problems, such as heart attacks, heart abnormalities and heart arrhythmias, confirms links of dangerous health risks posed to users of the prescription drug pain medicine due to the active opioid narcotic ingredient propoxyphene found in the popular painkillers Darvon and Darvocet.
