Someone mentioned trazadone as a possible trigger for this. Could Xanax also be a trigger? I've been on that for sleep and anxiety for several years, during which time I have developed SVT and AFIB, other heart rhythm problems. Makes me wonder......

This is just what I have read on several sites.
Results showed no significant relationship between QTc prolongation and BDZ use in any of the classes considered. We conclude that BDZs, even if used long-term and at high dosages, can be considered safe in terms of cardiovascular complications for patients.Jan 2, 2024

I believe that Xanax is not on the warning list.
