Usefullness of Pacerone

Usefullness of Pacerone

My father underwent bypass surgery in May of 1998.  Right after the surgery he experienced arrythmia and they sent him home on pacerone.  One month later he was no longer experiencing atrial fibrulation and they took him off of it.  Five months later he was back on it.  Since then he has been cardioverted 7 times.  
Are there any other medications that might be more effective in his case?  Any other options open to him?

Other alternatives are Sotalol or an ablation procedure.

You may wish to discuss these options with your cardiologist.
