Could the rapid, pounding heartbeat I feel when lying on my left side, the dizziness and fast heart rate when standing up, and the occasional feeling of skipped heartbeats be side effects of my blood pressure medications, Telma 40 and Prazopress XL 2.5, or do they indicate a heart problem?

The dizziness and rapid heart rate when standing are common side effects of your medications, especially Prazopress XL (prazosin), which can lower blood pressure quickly when you change positions. Telma (telmisartan) can also contribute to this. Additionally, lying on your left side physically positions your heart closer to the chest wall, making normal beats feel much stronger. While these symptoms are likely medication-related, please consult your prescribing doctor.
