A member asked:

Any herbal supplements that help with heart palpitations?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Very little research: With natural herbs and vitamins for heart palpitation. Some that may help are omega 3 fatty acids, carnitine, coq10, and magnesium. I will advise to get a good history and physical an r/o causes like physical reconditioning/obesity, dehydration, heart disease, hyperthyroidism, medications like diet pills, caffeine, energy drinks, cold drugs, stress and emotional problems, street drugs etc.

Hawthorne and...: Hawthorne berries have been used in folk medicine for over 2000 years; research confirms it's many benefits though more research on its use for palpitation is needed. See http://www.Herbwisdom.Com/herb-hawthorn-berry.Html motherwort is another good choice. Magnesium and taurine may help as well. Palpitations are a common side effect of adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine). I advise considering herbal alternatives for adhd!
