OTC meds to lower heart rate??

[coba94svt]

Not sure if this is the correct forum or not, so I apologize. I've been working out over the past 4 months in preparation for a new job to pass the physical. I've lost 30lbs so far. I was told I had till December to get my fat ass in shape. But they called last week and I have my test next Wednesday. I have to take a STEPS test, step up and down on a 12" step at 72 bpm for 3 minutes, heart rate can't go over 120 bpm. Anyone know of any OTC meds that could slow a heart rate??

Crown Royal and Jack Daniels are my meds of choice for this. Lol

Doubt it. Meds like metropolol for people with, interestingly enough, SVT (supraventricular tachycardia) aren't going to be available otc.

Was thinking like sleeping pills, or some cold meds.

I've seen studies that L-Arginine reduces peak heart rate slightly but not sure how definitive they are. There is a lot of things attributed to it that I question. Also not sure it's a single dose thing or you have to use it for a longer period of time.
