Although there are many intricate symptoms are related for induction of Cardiac Arrhythmias; however, improper impulse generation or impulse conduction induce this problem often for individuals.
The symptoms of Cardiac Arrhythmias may vary depending on its severity; however, most common symptoms of Cardiac Arrhythmias are discussed here.
In many instances, Cardiac Arrhythmias are symptom-less; however, common symptoms of this disease are acute palpitations, sense of pounding in heart, feeling of light headed ness, bout of fainting, acute or mild shortness of breath, discomfort in chest, unconditional fatigue etc. In case where none of these symptoms are acutely felt, doctors suggest having an electrocardiogram of the patient’s heartbeat for the prognosis of Cardiac Arrhythmias.

Antiarrhythmic drugs are meant for controlling irregular heart rate and in general include beta- blockers in its composition.
Anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy medicines trim down the risk of blood clotting and thus include aspirin or warfrain in its composition which on administration reduces fetal risk of heart attack or stroke.
