Is 85 heartbeats normal for women?

A heart rate of 85 beats/min for female patients is normal, but there are prerequisites for this normalcy. The standard heart rate range for adult women at rest is 60-100 beats/min, but if the heart rate is 85 beats/min when the patient is asleep, the heart rate is considered fast in practice. In elderly patients or patients with diagnosed cardiovascular disease, a heart rate of 85 beats/min at rest is also considered to be somewhat fast, and it is advisable to control the heart rate to 55-60 beats/min, which is relatively ideal. Patients are advised to take beta-blockers to slow down the heart rate when the heart rate is not up to standard, and representative drugs include propranolol, bisoprolol and other drugs.
