QID 208178 (Type "208178" in App Search)
A 65-year-old man with hypertension and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation presents to his cardiologist for follow-up after recently starting metoprolol for rate control. His EKG shows an atrial rate of 260/min with ventricular rate of 50/min on an irregular baseline. An echocardiogram from his previous visit revealed no evidence of hypokinesis or hypertrophy with functionally intact valves. The patient does not drink alcohol and had no evidence of liver dysfunction in prior studies. What is the best medication for rhythm control in this patient?
