Heart Palpitation

2021-05-16 08:28:13
I have problem related to heart Palpitation and hypertension. I am 35 years old and weight is 85. Taking propranolol which controlled both the problems. It has been 1 year i am taking it. When i stop taking propranolol the palpitation again starts. Though my hear beats normal while resting it goes up to 125 when doing a small work. My hb and thyroid and cholesterol are ok and ecg also normal. Is it safe to continue propranolol for longer period.

Some of the young hypertensives have sympathetic overactivity which leads to high heart rate abd blood pressure and B blockers have shown to reduce heart rate and blood pressure. Propranolol is a non selective B blocker. It is better to take cardioselective B blockers like Metoprolol, Bisoprolol and Carvedilol. Among these I would recommend Bisoprolol.
