What medicine to use for SVT episodes white travelling?
Patient: i am 54 years. i have svt episodes twice a year on average  half the time it stops on its own, half the time i have to be administered drug IV.. if i have svt episode while travelling (in flight for example),and cant get to a doctor , what medication can help Doctor: Hello and thanks for writing.I can understand your concern and would try to help you in the best possible way. You can take a calcium channel blocker to terminate SVT if no medical help is available. However after each episode you have to go to the doctor to get yourself checked up. Consult your doctor for a prescription and discuss with him alternatives available.I also advise you to consult a cardiologist as you are having recurrent SVTs. There are treatment options available like an EP study followed by RF ablation which works as a permanent cure is some types of SVTs. Do discuss that option with your cardiologist.
