A member asked:
My pcp is not concerned about my frequent pvcs. however they are a persistent nuisance. i suspect possible side effect of advair. any suggestions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pvcs: These are beats which are isolated and originate from the bottom chamber and are often benign. They can be provoked by meds and adrenalin. If they do not have any effect on heart function and do not cause symptoms no treatment is ncessary
