Title: evoxac... high heart rate???
Post by: lori on October 12, 2013, 05:28:52 AM
anyone have this side effect from evoxac?

heart rate mugh higher in am a couple hours after taking..alos pretty high in the am upon awakening-
I take the med at bedtime and first thing in am...hummmmm

was blaming synthroid which im NOT convinced is not the problem altho endo wont hear of it cuase the ' labs are in range"

am having mega perimeno symptoms and wondering if hormones are culprit or if a combo of all of it! ugh!

anyhow, just wondering...

Lori,

My heart rate runs higher on Evoxac, especially after lunch dose.  I've been on it since 2007 so it is some better.

Anna

PS. I take 3 times a day.

Amanda,

ive been takingthe evoxac and synthroid all at same time each am.. have done that for years.... this all just started in august....

I only take evoxac twice daily- then this afternoon had an episode of racing that went away about hour- two later...

no where near taking the evoxc...

so frustrating trying to pin point whats going on.
