7 months post large pericardial effusion. weaned offcolchine. takingverapimel to control tachycardia palpitations. what can cause palp to start again?

See your MD: Your doctor can send you to cardiology to find out. The verapamil can slow down tachycardia and can block the common, regular pathway, but not alternative electrical pathways. Your cardiologist can find out. Also reconsider young lung medicine and either change or adjust dose especially of albuterol if you find it may be doing it.
