2. Reaction to Certain Medications
One common cause of heart palpitation is a reaction to medications. There are certain types of treatments and medications that can cause side effects such as heart palpitations. This is common and most doctors are aware of this. Palpitations are often observed in patients who use an asthma inhaler. Sometimes, it can also happen to people who are taking antidepressants or antibiotics.
This may sound a bit far-fetched, but doctors are aware that even the use of anti-fungal medications is enough to trigger heart palpitations in some people. If this happens to you, it would be best to inform your doctor immediately. You may be tempted to stop using the drug due to the reaction but consult your doctor before doing so.
