Q:

Is Warfarin the only drug for my atrial fibrillation?

A:

Warfarin is the most commonly known anticoagulant drug (blood thinner) to treat atrial fibrillation and reduce the risk of stroke. It has longstanding use, however people tend to dislike the frequent monitoring required to keep the right dosage.

Q:

Atrial Fibrillation and Cardiac Rehab Exercise Programs

A:

Cardiac rehab is not just for patients that have undergone any cardiac event, either a heart attack or bypass surgery. We are now referring a lot of patients to cardiac rehab to increase their exercise tolerance, keep them active, and not just sitting on the couch doing nothing because that’s poor for their overall health, their overall cardiovascular health.

So cardiac rehab exercise programs are great for patients with atrial fibrillation.
