No. Dr is slowly stopping metoprolol due to shortness of breath and tiredness and increasing diltiazem from 60 mg twice a day to diltiazem er180 once a day for afib.
I've been on Diltiazem 120 mg for 10+ years, no side effects…. it does keep heart rate lower and according to my Doctor is heart beneficial not just from a afib standpoint.
