Is Flecainide Along With Metoprolol Advisable For A-fib?

My husband has A-Fib and is taking flecinaide. He use to take metoprolol but has been taken off of it. He is having trouble with shortness of breath. I have a feeling getting off the metoprolol is causing it. Can he take both the flecinaide and metoprolol safely?
