That looks very interesting. It would be good to know about any side effects.
Thank you, I am always interested in alternatives.
Very interesting, would be interesting to see it compared with other drugs used for our condition. Always prefer the natural approach if possible, including diet.Thank you.
I am not familiar with the drug, however from the publication some good quality studies on this might be warranted.
The study itself is not of good quality, and is in very bad English, so much so that the study design is unclear. Also the study interpretation is incorrect. The authors state: "... our data appear to demonstrate at least equivalence with the most effective antiarrhythmic medication ..." The study has definitely not demonstrated equivalence.
I would definitely not be wanting to use this treatment before it has been properly tested (as have all of the drugs commonly used)
