Suggest Treatment For Premature Ventricular Contractions
I ended up in the emergency room yesterday with runs of bigeminy and trigeminy. Though I dont ever have this problem, I do have a lifetime of rapid heart rate, usually at about 90-100 at rest, of course more if active. I had been taking Tylenol cold medicine (phenylephrine, no pseudoephedrine) for a cold x 5 days & ER doc thought that might be why I had the irregularities. I can feel every single PVC! No problem with it today, though my cold persists. Is there ANYTHING I can take that wont risk the return of the PVCs?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, cold condition and medicines taken for that are nothing to do with the PVC neither it could cause any symptoms it can only be detected in ECG ( Sever form could cause some symptoms and it could be medical emergency ) hope this information helps.
