Suggest Treatment For Palpitations And Anxiety
I m am going through a hard time at the min with my husband and as such am having a lot of anxiety and my pulse is racing constantly, I ve not slept properly in days and bought some sleeping tablets, I have asthma and told the pharmacist that but they gave me the own brand ones, when I opened the pack though the instructions say do not take if u have asthma. How bad honestly would it be if I took half? What could happen?

Hello,
First of all,the diagnosis of bronchial asthma should be given by a doctor after physical examination and laboratory investigations.
Second,some drugs which are used to treat asthma can increase heart rate and cause insomnia,so you should tell your doctor about your problems.
Third,you should do routine investigations such :measuring blood pressure and if it was high,you would receive medical treatment,decrease salt and fat intake,do an ECG and an ECHO on your heart.
Fourth,the irregular menses,the hormonal therapy for contraception or replacement therapy can have influence on your heart and sleep habit.
Finally,the sleeping tablet cannot help you ,you should know the causes of your problem.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
