What Casues Palpitations While On Hydrocodone?

My 16 year old dart had os trigonum surgery on her left ankle 1.5 days ago. She s taking an anti-nausea medication, an anti-inflammatory, and hydrocodone. The first and last every six hours. Her heart is really racing when she s on the hydrocodone. The anti-nausea med at first was helping slow her heart down, but not anymore. She needs pain meds for sure but how worried should we be about the racing heart?

Hello,

She can have another painkiller maybe she has some allergy to hydrocodone . You shouldn't take any side effects lightly . Since how long is she on the drug? You should get it checked out.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
