Can Acetazolamide Cause Palpitations, Breathlessness And Headache?
I ve been taking Acetazolamide 250mg (4 x day) since yesterday foe high IOC. Pressure year day was 37 in my R eye (1 week ago it had been at 30). Beginning this morning started to feel a lot of tingling in fingers / hands, feelings of shortness breath / rapid heart beat / headache & heaviness in head / light headed ness. Called pharmacist but he wasn t sure if it was related to this medication. Told me to stop if I got worse symptoms or developed rash. Symptoms decreased some in pm but seem to be increasing again. Now I looked online & I see that this may signify severe side effect. Not sure what to do & how to interpret this
