Posted on Fri, 27 Oct 2017
Question: Hi Iam XXXXXXX during a medical last year the doctor pointed out I had an irregular heart beat and prescribed Concor 2.5 mg to be taken in the mornings. It worked for a while but recently the effect wears off by late afternoon, should I therefore take another 2.5 mg late afternoon/early evening? I am otherwise fit and healthy...except that I am constantly aware of my heart beat through my ears when all around me is quiet..
