I have recently been changed to Felodipine after many years on Co-tenidone. I have no other side effects except palpitations whenever I am sitting still. I get them for a few days and then have a few days free of them. Has anyone else experienced this?

    I was getting palpitations and missing heart beats with Amiloride. As far as the missing heart beats are concerned, I was told it didn't matter as long as you didn't miss ten beats!!! Thankfully I never got that far but it was still an unpleasant and rgular experience. Stopped Amiloride and so have palpitations and missing beats. If it is not your tablets try stopping coffee or caffeinbe drinks, chocolate and also wine. Not much fun but any one of those could be a factor.
