If you are referring to atrial fibrillation, this is an irregular, and sometimes fast, heart rate caused by abnormal electrical connections in the heart. Toprol is very useful in slowing down the rate of atrial fibrillation,and thus eliminating many of the symptoms, though it does not usually stop atrial fibrillation from occurring nor does it diminish the risk of stroke from being in atrial fibrillation.
