A member asked:
Can muscle building supplements such as creatine monohydrate cause heart problems like palpitations and arrhythmia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infrequent: High doses of creatine, especially combined with caffeine and possibly alcohol, has been thought to potentially cause palpitations or disturbances in heart rhythm. This is felt to be an infrequent effect,however.
