A fatal heart rhythm, or arrhythmia, means the heart's electrical signals become chaotic, preventing it from pumping blood effectively. While some arrhythmias are harmless, others can be life-threatening, causing sudden cardiac arrest. Drugs or underlying conditions can trigger these, highlighting the importance of medical supervision when taking powerful medications like Zepbound.
