VF: Beta blockers just slow down the heart rate. They do not necessarily prevent VF in myocarditis.

Ventricular fibrilla: Antiarrhythmic medications and antiheart failure medications can decrease the probability of ventricular fibrillation but no medication is 'preventative'.

Vf: Beta blockers decrease the chance of having fast rhythm problems to some extent, not proven for VF in myocarditis.
