Why Is Propranolol Prescribed For A Skipped Heart Beat?
I have had a skipped heartbeat Years ago. The doctor took an electrocardiograph and saw it on the resulting printout. He started me on propranolol and this stopped it very quickly. I am still on this medication. The doctor gave a name to my problem, but I cannot recall the name. Would you know what it is?
