Is it serious or dangerous to feel like my heart is pausing or stopping and starting after taking Dilzem for a fluttering heartbeat?

Asked by Male, 20 · 5 days ago

Dilzem (diltiazem) is prescribed to calm a fluttering heart, but it can sometimes slow your heart rate down too much, leading to these sensations of pauses or skipped beats. While this is a known side effect, it is important to contact your prescribing doctor promptly so they can monitor your heart rhythm and adjust your medication if needed. If you experience dizziness, shortness of breath, or chest pain, please seek medical attention right away.
