What Causes Heart Palpitations And Nausea After Starting On Cartia Again?
Question: I have three stents and about four months ago decided to stop taking my Cartia tablets - recently i had a minor Angina attack and after that was told to start taking Cartia again (about two weeks ago). Two days ago I started having palpitations and slight nausea - could this be the result of restarting Cartia (one per day)
Brief Answer:
This is not a typical side effect of Cartia!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this palpitation and nausea that you have reported. These are not typical side effects of cartia. If this begun after starting the new medication and it is getting worse, then it may be related to it. In this case, I will suggest you monitor a little. If you are feeling better, then there would be no need to review this medication. However, if that is not the case, I will suggest that we get the treatment re-evaluated and medications substituted to see if that makes you feel better.
On a general note, healthy diet, fruits and vegetable intake, and regular exercise would be of great help to your overall health status.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
