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Drinking Age Act, passed by Congress 30 years ago this July, is a gross violation of civil liberties and must be repealed.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.
I have been getting the sensation of my heart doing a flip-flop for a few weeks now. A few weeks ago I had to take Prednisone for a CT Scan, as I am allergic to Iodine Dye.A few hours after I took the pill, I got bad heart palpitations that landed me in the ER for observation. The Dr. said it was a reaction to the Prednisone.
