=== Lifestyle === The first line of treatment, suitable for all people with Brugada syndrome regardless of their risk of arrhythmias, is lifestyle advice.<ref name=Pri2013 /> People should be advised to recognise and avoid things that may increase the risk of serious arrhythmias. These include avoiding excessive alcohol consumption, avoiding certain medications,<ref name="Postema_2009">{{cite journal | vauthors = Postema PG, Wolpert C, Amin AS, Probst V, Borggrefe M, Roden DM, Priori SG, Tan HL, Hiraoka M, Brugada J, Wilde AA | title = Drugs and Brugada syndrome patients: review of the literature, recommendations, and an up-to-date website (www.brugadadrugs.org) | journal = Heart Rhythm | volume = 6 | issue = 9 | pages = 1335β41 | date = September 2009 | pmid = 19716089 | pmc = 2779019 | doi = 10.1016/j.hrthm.2009.07.002 }}</ref> and treating fever promptly with [[paracetamol]].<ref name=Pri2013 /> Although the abnormal heart rhythms seen in Brugada syndrome are generally more likely to occur at rest or even during sleep, some people with Brugada syndrome experience arrhythmias during strenuous exercise. Some physicians may therefore advise people with Brugada syndrome that while gentle exercise is helpful, very strenuous exercise should be avoided.<ref name="Mascia_2017">{{cite journal | vauthors = Mascia G, Arbelo E, Ojeda JH, Solimene F, Brugada R, Brugada J | title = Brugada Syndrome and Exercise Practice: Current Knowledge, Shortcomings and Open Questions | journal = International Journal of Sports Medicine | volume = 38 | issue = 8 | pages = 573β581 | date = July 2017 | pmid = 28625016 | doi = 10.1055/s-0043-107240 | s2cid = 3868956 | url = https://www.openaccessrepository.it/record/203070 }}</ref><ref name="Masrur_2015">{{cite journal | vauthors = Masrur S, Memon S, Thompson PD | title = Brugada syndrome, exercise, and exercise testing | journal = Clinical Cardiology | volume = 38 | issue = 5 | pages = 323β6 | date = May 2015 | pmid = 25955277 | doi = 10.1002/clc.22386 | pmc = 6711014 }}</ref>
