HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Methamphetamine is a stimulant and it cause lead to increase in heart rate and anxiety symptoms. These are common side effects with meth and there is nothing to worry about it. With in one day, all these side effects would subside. If it is difficult for you to handle her at home, then you can consult a physician.

Thanks
