Heart pounding: If the "shot" you received for allergies was Adrenalin (epinephrine) this has a common side effect of having the heart beat faster and stronger. This side effect should gradually resolve on its own. If the "shot" was something other than epinephrine, return to your doctor for further evaluation.
