Welcome to HCM
It is not possible to comment properly – you have NOT mentioned the name of the medicine!
There are medicines, which have effects on both
One problem may need more than one drug / one drug may treat more than one problem…
She seems to have Sick Sinus Syndrome?
She will need investigations like Holter or Electrophysiology… depending on the outcome; she may need a pacemaker?
The treating doctor alone can suggest further based on his assessment of the situation.
