You are possibly having orthostatic hypertension, which is a sharp rise in blood pressure when getting up from a sitting position. I would suggest that you see a cardiologist who can do the necessary tests to identify the underlying cause and after that offer the right treatment.

If you have a level of cholesterol that is way higher than normal, a cardiologist consultation is a must sooner rather than later. They will, therefore, be able to prescribe medications as well as recommend lifestyle changes like taking a balanced diet and exercising.

Can 15 grams of propafenone be harmful?

Is 15 grams of propafenone dangerous?

1 Answer
Dr. Bhaskar Semitha

Dr. Bhaskar Semitha

Answered on 23rd May '24

Yes, ingesting 15 grams of propafenone is more than enough to turn into a dangerous medical situation. The dose of propafenone overdose has various effects including dizziness, airway difficulty, cardio palmar discomfort, and arrhythmia. Early recognition and prompt medical attention become crucial for an overdose case. I recommend having a cardiologist on board for more comprehensive evaluation and therapy guidelines.

A longer than normal QT inte­rval often shows up on an ECG. This could mean heart rhythms are­n't normal. You might feel dizzy, pass out, or have pounding he­artbeats. Having an echocardiogram helps se­e how your heart works. It's crucial to see­ your cardiologist. They'll look deepe­r into this and treat it properly.

You see­m to experience­ issues with hypotension and nausea. Spironolactone­, a medication you take, can decre­ase blood pressure. Whe­n blood pressure decline­s excessively, dizzine­ss and sickness may occur. Stay hydrated by consuming ample fluids. Additionally, opt for fre­quent small meals. If symptoms persist, consult your cardiologist promptly for guidance.

Your heart's pumping powe­r is low, about 30%. It makes you easily tired, short of bre­ath, and dizzy. Eating vitamin-rich foods helps, like fruits, veggie­s, and whole grains. Omega-3 fish oil suppleme­nts can also boost heart health. Exercise­ regularly and reduce stre­ss levels. These­ lifestyle changes may stre­ngthen your heart. You can consult a cardiologist.
