Could Missed Heart Beats Be Caused By Prolomet X125?
I am taking prolomet xl25 since past 4 months. This has been prescribed by cardiologist for HT. I face missing beats especially when (a) I have had a very tiring day and (b) I move from one position lying down to up right position and (c) When I am stressed. It is not a regular occurance but sometimes. Please let me know how serious is this and is it the sideeffect of the drug.Thanks.

Hello,
To me, you should monitor your blood pressure (bp), record the results for reference. The missing heartbeats are indicating that your heart is not working properly. You need to get it monitored through Holter monitoring.
Blood electrolytes should also get checked, and treated adequately. Discuss this further with your cardiologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
