"Seems to have worked in getting rid of most of the hard-feeling PVCs I've had. It took 5 days. However, the downside for me seems to be the swing into major depression and shortness of breath or a feeling of having shallow breath to work with. Making me tired. This was on 80 mg a day taken at night."
