Generally heart palpitations are not serious. If they are accompanied by chest pain, see your doctor. It's best to reduce caffeine. Too many palpitations can cause heart pumping problems.
A palpitation can be felt when the heart beats too fast, too slow or irregularly--this is called an arrhythmia. Many things can cause palpitations including: dehydration, fever, drinking too much caffeine or alcohol, stress, anxiety, certain drugs such as diet pills, over the counter decongestants and some recreational drugs. Palpitations can also be caused by heart or lung disease. Some one having palpitations should be seen by a physicain to deptermine the cause and treatment.
There are medications to control heart palpitations if they are actually something like atrial tachycardia (fast beating atrium) or atrial fibrillation (atrium that flutters rather than pumps.) A person should consider medication in cases where the palpitations last more than an hour or two. Uncontrolled, certain of these ailments can churn the blood to the point that it clots in the blood vessels.
