kindly immediately consult a physician
Detailed Answer:
Hello madam,
Thanks for writing in to us at hcm.
I understand your anxiousness regarding your health problem.
Fat burning products that contain a combination of the two alkaloids are
harmful as synephrine may affect cardiac ,vascular functions and the central nervous system and caffeine on the other hand increases these effects.
Extracts made from Citrus orange, can contain considerable amounts of synephrine which is an ephedrine-like substance.
Many countries dont approve of usage of such products.
Also sudden stoppage of such medicine can lead to withdral effects that can last a week.
I suggest kindly immediately consult a physician regarding this and he/she shall do the needful as tachhycardia (increased pulse rate) can lead to more problems.
Hope this answers your query. Don't worry .
Do write back if you have any further doubts.
Get well soon
