The Drinking Age Is Past Its Prime. The National Minimum Drinking Age Act, passed by Congress 30 years ago this July, is a gross violation of civil liberties and must be repealed. It is absurd and unjust that young Americans can vote, marry, enter contracts and serve in the military at 18 but cannot buy an alcoholic drink in a bar or restaurant.
Hiya Shmitty, I am not a medical doctor, I only speak of my own experience of having illnesses that require that I take steroids. Yes, in some cases prednisone can cause heart irregularities i.e. fluttering, palpitations etc. This needs to be brought to the attention of your prescribing doctor as soon as possible.
Palpitations can be caused by anxiety, arrhythmias, caffeine, certain medications, cocaine and other amphetamines, emotional stress, overeating, panic, somatization, and vigorous exercise.ost palpitations are harmless, but some can be a sign of heart trouble, which could be fatal if left untreated. Palpitations not caused by arrhythmias can be prevented by reducing or eliminating anxiety and emotional stress, and reducing or eliminating consumption of tea, cola, coffee, and chocolate.
