What Is The Treatment For Rapid Heart Rate?

I was admitted to the hospital a few days ago with rapid pulse north of 190 bpm. In the emergency room they injected me with something that made me feel tightness in my chest and as though I couldn t breath for a few seconds and then the sensation went away. I can t remember the name of the drug I was given... Could you help me?
