Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Rapid Heart Rate And Shakiness When On Procardia?
My doctor wrote my prescription for procardia 30mg XL to take 1-2 as needed once daily. My pressure was high last night so I took two and 4 hours later woke up with a rapid heart rate and feeling shaky. Not sure if it was a panic attack or what. My question is- is taking 2 procardia 30mg XL the same as taking 1 60 mg XL?
I would like to tell you that palpitation with shakiness either can be anxiety or a febrile episode. It’s recommended for you to consult a physician personally for proper physical and diagnostic evaluation and treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
