Question 3

Hey, a few days back I had a weird situation where I started feeling really anxious, my heart rate shot up to 150, and I had palpitations. I took Ciplar LA 20 and Dolo 650, and luckily my pulse eventually dropped back to 75. I'm trying to figure out ...

Accepted Answer

Based on your description, it is possible that you experienced episodes of Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) given the sudden onset of palpitations, anxiety feeling, and rapid rise in pulse rate to 150 beats per minute. The fact that your symptoms improved after taking Ciplar LA 20 (propranolol) which is a beta-blocker commonly used to manage SVT supports this possibility. Additionally, the normal ECG results in May suggest that there may not be any underlying structural heart issues causing the SVT. For the management of SVT episodes, you can continue to use Ciplar LA 20 as needed to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss long-term management options, such as potential medication adjustments or other interventions like ablation therapy. In the meantime, it is advisable to avoid triggers that may precipitate SVT episodes, such as caffeine, stress, or certain medications. Keeping a record of your symptoms and discussing them with your healthcare provider can also help in monitoring your condition effectively.

Accepted Answer

SINUS bradycardia with frequent PVC can be managed with medication. Since you are already taking Cordarone 100, which contains Amiodarone, it is likely being used to treat the frequent PVCs. In addition to Cordarone, a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol can also be prescribed to help regulate the heart rate and reduce the PVCs. The dosage of Metoprolol can vary, but a common starting dose is around 25-50mg twice daily. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the effectiveness of the treatment and adjust the dosage if needed.
