How To Cure PVC S?

I have had a history of PVC s , had 4 ablations, been on tambacor, rhythmol, tenormin, you name it. I can t seem to stop the PVC s. they are especially noticeable within 2-4 minutes at rest following mild to moderate activity. My EP just started me on sotalol 80mg bid. I have no structural damage. I am at home on this med and just took my first dose about 4 hrs ago. Is it safe to begin this at home? And is this a better choice than the flecainide and rhythmol?
