What are some off the medications for heart plupitations?

Answer 1

The term "palpitations" is a generic nonspecific term and is usually used by people to describe a heartbeat that occasionally skips or feels like its pounding or beating hard and other nonspecific sensations. They are usually benign and need no treatment at all and are called premature ventricular contractions or PVC's. However, there are always special situations and exceptions to the rule so if you are concerned about it for any reason, especially if it persists, makes you feel dizzy or have chest pain, you should see a physician who can listen to your heart, perform an ECG and decide if any further evaluation needs to be done. If they are indeed benign PVC's but still occur frequently making you uncomfortable sometimes a betablocker type medication is used to slow down your overall heart rate as well as the PVC's. The reasoning being that if your overall heart rate is lowered you will experience fewer PVC's. Again a doctor can give you more information after a full history, physical exam and ECG if you are still concerned. The other medications listed in the previous answers are for specific abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) and require a specific diagnosis be made after a thorough evaluation.

Answer 2

There are alot more than the last answer. Best thing is to talk to your cardilogist, or better get get a referral to a heart rhythm specialist, an electrophysiologist. In addition to calcium channel blockers, beta blockers, etc, there are also ACE inhibitors, digoxin, and drugs called anti-arrhythmiacs. These are big-time drugs & not to be taken lightly, but they can help many people. Rhythmol, Flecainide, Solatol, Amiodarone, Norpace, Tikosyn, Tambocor, etc. There really are a lot, depending on your situation. You can search any of these on the web for more ino. Good luck!

Answer 3

I have heart palpitations and a combination of vitamins have helped me. First of all calcium and magnesium is important . I take ionic fuzz which is a powder with those minerals at bed time. COq10 is a very important vitamin for the heart, it's been used in japan for many years and american doctors are now starting to use it. Coq10 can be found at your local drug store. ionic fuzz can be bought at your local health food store or online. BTW I don't make money selling or endosing these products...I use them because I believe they are good.
