What should I do if I suddenly have a fast heart rate and elevated blood pressure?

For physiological factors leading to fast heart rate and high blood pressure, rest is the mainstay; for those caused by arrhythmia, anti-arrhythmia treatment should be carried out; for those caused by pheochromocytoma, surgery and symptomatic treatment should be carried out. Sudden rapid heart rate and high blood pressure caused by strenuous exercise, poor rest, emotional excitement and other factors can often be restored after rest. For arrhythmia with symptoms of fast heart rate and high blood pressure, the cause should be clarified, and anti-arrhythmic drugs, such as metoprolol and amiodarone, can be applied appropriately. For the pheochromocytoma caused by fast heart rate and high blood pressure, surgery should be carried out to remove the tumor, but also can apply prazosin, phenobarbital, nifedipine and other drugs for symptomatic treatment, which can relieve the symptoms. In addition, hyperthyroidism and other diseases will also appear in the situation of fast heart rate and elevated blood pressure. Therefore, when the symptoms of fast heart rate and elevated blood pressure occur, you should go to the hospital to clarify the cause of the disease and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
