Do you mean palpitations, if so a lot of medication out there can cause them as I get them now and again. Sorry if this doesn't help

Yes, palpitations would be a better description. Thank you for your input.

Hi janno, Yes, they are not uncommon.

Salbutamol is especially good at making the heart race.

Do check with your Dr if you are still concerned- they will offer an ECG to check things out.

Be well
