Very interesting study on berberine for the treatment of fibrillation:
[pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Conclusions: "...We find that berberine and amiodarone are equally effective for conversion of AF and maintenance of normal SR"

Interesting. Here is another article. [www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov] The effect on acetylcholine seems to be involved.

Ber has anti-arrhythmic actions as well as anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-myocardial ischemia, and even anti-thrombosis effects [19-23]. Therefore, Ber is potentially more suitable for treating chronic AF than other similar AADs.

so what about bradycardia with berberine? Anyone have any info on that or experience? I read some reference to this. I have a ?wide/long?? PR interval and some lower rates at time probably from the flecanide but I have been having a ton of PACs and was considering trying the berberine until I read some on the bradycardia.

thanks. I did see that one. I noticed it was just one guy.. but still. Mostly I'm having a ton of PACs.. on and off. When I eat higher protein lower carb they seem to be better. It just taking some getting used to and looking for other fixes... A girl can only eat so many eggs. (Plus my cholesterol is high- depending on your definition- so it is a toggling thing.).

How do we read the entire study? The abstract doesn't tell how much berberine they took or how often, for how long. Is it to be taken indefinitely? Any reason not to?
