A member asked:

Got heart palps. since last thurs. normal ekg and chest x-ray. dr told me to keep taking ritalin (methylphenidate). i'm afraid of taking meds with the palps. what 2 do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Family practice : I can't treat your palpitations but Ritalin (methylphenidate) may be the cause. If it continues see your dr again to see if its safe to stop for awhile or adjust the dose. Get an echocardiogram and holer monitor to determine if the palpitations are significant.
