I'm feeling a bit anxious because my heart rate has increased after I took pregabalin. Do you know how long this might last or what I should do next?

After taking pregabalin and experiencing an increased heart rate, it is important to monitor your symptoms closely. The increased heart rate can be a side effect of pregabalin. It is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. To address the increased heart rate, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The recommended dosage for Metoprolol in this case would be 25-50mg orally once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and alleviate the symptoms you are experiencing. The duration of the increased heart rate effect can vary from person to person. It is recommended to continue monitoring your symptoms and consult your healthcare provider if the symptoms persist or worsen.
