Hello , The prescription is good and do continue the same . Carca will take care of palpitation. Ciplar does the same thing but has more systemic side effects , alternative would be a cardio selective beta blocker like metoprolol
Mvp causes a murmur and not Ciplar , some misunderstanding on that part.
Valance and pari cr must have been started for anxiety and panic attacks if you had any ,
I would suggest you can taper it off over a period of time .
Also for MVP a blood thinner like low dose aspirin 75 mg is suggested.
For any clarification you can always ping back .
