Hi,
Sinus bradycardia without any symptoms or underlying conditions may not require treatment. For those who need it, the treatment of sinus bradycardia depends on what’s causing it. Some treatment options include treating underlying conditions like thyroid disease, sleep apnea. Adjusting the dosage of any medications such as thyroxine if required should also be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
