 [ Symptoms ] how long do i need to take protonix before i see any relief do any of the ppis work any faster [ Disease ] well it is an accurate diagnosis but in your age if you are healthy your resting heart rate can be 40 and easly jump to 180 when you run do a tilt table test to confirm40 heart beats is not dangerous in your age yet i agree with you anti depression drugs are unsafe it is better if you treat the cause for your tachycardia which could be hyperthyroidism anemia or your anxiety instead of just treating the symptomsgood luck
