A Dr. Douglas E. Severance, MD , Family Medicine, answered. Cardiologists usually treat atrial fibrillation, which is the most common type of abnormal heart rhythm, or arrhythmia. An electrophysiologist is a cardiologist who specializes in arrhythmias. However, other kinds of doctors can also treat atrial fibrillation, and who you see usually depends on the type of health care plan you have.
The symptoms of atrial fibrillation are caused by the irregular heartbeat. Some people find Afib episodes to be painful and frightening. Others say they are simply uncomfortable. To help, your medical team may prescribe medications aimed at controlling your heart rate and your heart rhythm. In some cases, the same medications are used to control both. Beta blockers are a class of medications that are commonly used for heart rate control. These medications block some of the effects of adrenaline, which tends to make the heart beat faster. Metoprolol is an example of a commonly used beta blocker.
