Does Increased Dosage Of Synthroid Cause Heart Palpitations?
Thank you I have been taking synthroid 25uM at night every night, but started taking it in the morning about a week ago. for the last few days I have experienced heart palpitations though the day. It is the same sensetion as when I was put on the first dose of 50uM, before my doctor dropped the dose to 25uM
Yes, increased dose of Synthroid can cause palpitations. When taken in increased dose Synthroid can cause tremors, increased heart beats, palpitations, sweating and anxiety. I would recommend a dose reduction of Synthroid.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
