Posted on Tue, 24 Jan 2017
Question: I'm taking Subsus for cancer pain. My heart rate is 95 to 120 which I'm not use to...BO 154 over 80. Can Subsus cause this and should I take nitro to bring my pulse down to 75 which it normally is.

I have 2 sons and don't want them to loose me as they are 11 13

Brief Answer:
Yes it can cause

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.

Subsys can cause high heart rate. As the BP is not low, there is not much to worry. But if it is bothering you with palpitations, ivabradine can reduce it. Please talk to your doc regarding its feasibility in you.

I don't think this will cause any serious problems.

Hope this helps.
