View allI've been feeling a rapid heartbeat and some pounding since yesterday. I checked it, and it's at 88 bpm. Is this normal? Could it be related to the cough medicine I've been taking? When should this settle down?
A heart rate of 88 beats per minute is within the normal range for adults. However, if you are feeling pounding and rapid heartbeat, it may be a side effect of the cough medicine you are taking. Some cough medicines contain ingredients that can increase heart rate as a side effect. I recommend stopping the cough medicine and consulting with your healthcare provider. If needed, you can switch to a cough medicine that does not have this side effect, such as Delsym (dextromethorphan) at a dose of 10-20 mg every 4-6 hours as needed.

I'm wondering if it's normal for my heart rate to go up after I drink alcohol. Is there a medical reason for this, or should I be concerned about it? Can you explain what's going on?
Yes, alcohol consumption can lead to an increase in heart rate. This is because alcohol is a vasodilator, which means it causes the blood vessels to relax and widen. As a result, the heart has to work harder to pump blood throughout the body, leading to an increase in heart rate. Additionally, alcohol can also stimulate the release of certain hormones, such as adrenaline, which can further elevate heart rate. It is important to note that excessive alcohol consumption can have negative effects on the heart and cardiovascular system. If you experience persistently high heart rate after alcohol consumption, it is advisable to limit your intake and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
