A member asked:
Is a racing heart dangerous when taking concerta?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to Evaluate: Stimulant medicines can cause an increase in heart rate. For many people this is not a significant issue, but for some people it can be a concern. It would be worthwhile for you to contact your prescribing physician asap for further guidance. My recommendation would be to not continue the Concerta until this matter can be evaluated.
