People who have severe LV dysfunction, do get these VT episodes due to scar. In an ideal situation he would require an AICD. This is basically a device that protects from Sudden cardiac death. As medical therapy he needs beta blocker and you can also take amiodarone. If you could upload your prescription that would be great
