HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your mother, here I would like to advise that apart from the functional condition of your mother it is important to rule out the systemic cause of palpitation if not done yet and the most probable cause would be heart disease, and if it is being done and nothing remarkable found then better to continue the same medicine prescribed by psychiatrist, newer molecules may have the same indication and it may not make any difference, instead counselling and moral support would be much better, hope this information helps.
