Evidence Review

Early evidence suggests berberine might help reduce irregular heartbeats called premature ventricular contractions.
A review of small studies found that berberine worked about as well as antiarrhythmic drugs but had fewer side effects.
Taking berberine with these drugs may work better than drugs alone without more side effects.
The quality of this evidence is low.

MetaEfficacy and safety of berberine for premature ventricular contractions: a meta-analysis and systematic review of randomized controlled trials2023n=896

A meta-analysis of 10 PVC RCTs in 896 patients found berberine plus antiarrhythmic drugs raised effective treatment rate (RR 1.26) without more adverse events; berberine alone lowered recurrence and adverse reactions.
