Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

So heart evaluation, what was the cause found for arrhythmia. I guess those are ventricular ectopics. As aggravated by coffee, try to keep its consumption under control. Also, you should get your drug modified, and request to include beta blockers in the current medicines instead of other medicines. This will prevent ectopics from occurring. They are usually safe and should try if ectopics are there.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
