Palpitations treatment

I was experiencing heart palpitations for more than 15 years I went for an Echocardiogram and diagnised with dilated cardiomyopathy symptoms. I was given Carvedilol but it worsened. I changed to verapamil for more than a month but nothing changed but becoming worse. Recently I was given Lanoxin and the palpitations are disappearing massively, it's now seven days after starting the course but I can rarely feel the palpitations. So for those with ralated complications may encourage their doctors to try Lanoxin

Lanoxin - active ingredient is Digoxin - which is the oldest Medicine for ‘palpitations’ known. It fell out of popularity but seems to be making a comeback.
