If you are experiencing a rapid heart rate, your doctor may prescribe medications to help control it. Some people also need to make lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly. If your tachycardia is caused by an underlying medical condition, treating that condition may help to control your heart rate. For example, if you have an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), your doctor may prescribe medication to treat the thyroid problem.
