Hello, No. It will not adversely affect the heart palpitation. So you can take as prescribed by your ayurveda doctor. Take care, Kind regards.
Hello Vanitha, Thanks for asking such an important question. I can totally understand your point of view — if a person already has heart palpitations, it is only natural that he/she worries about a new medicine might make it worse.
YOUR CONCERN & PROBABLE CONTEXT
From your message: You are already on medication for heart palpitations You are inquiring whether a Manasa Tablet can cause or worsen palpitations You are nervous about heart safety
This is an extremely valid concern and a question that should always be answered before taking any new medicine.
WHAT IS MANASA TABLET (AYURVEDIC VIEW)
Manasa Tablet is mainly:
Used in Anxiety Mental Restlessness Stress-related complaints Sleep disturbances
It primarily impacts: Mind (Manovaha Srotas) The nervous system calming Vata–Pitta balance
Manasa Tablet did not cause heart palpitations, right?
👉 In MOST cases — NO.
✔️ Manasa Tablet is not a stimulant ✔️ It does not increase heart rate ✔️ It generally alleviates anxiety-induced palpitations, rather than aggravating them
On the contrary, a large number of palpitations are anxiety/stress related, so treating the cause can be a great help to the heart.
IMPORTANT CAUTION (VERY IMPORTAN
However, if Manasa Tablet is definitely a safe one: If palpitations are caused by: Diseases of the heart structure Arrhythmia diagnosed by ECG Thyroid problems
👉 Then, a new medicine should be introduced with extreme caution.
HOW TO TAKE IT SAFELY (IF ADVISED) - Only start with a LOW DOSE - ½ tablet once a day, after food - Check your condition for 3–5 days
- If you are not experiencing more palpitations, you can continue the dose as directed ❌ Do NOT start immediately with a full dose ❌ Do NOT take it if your stomach is empty
IS IT ALRIGHT TO COMBINE THIS MEDICINE WITH HEART MEDICINES?
✅ In most cases yes, but:
Maintain a 2-hour interval between Manasa Tablet and heart drugs Don’t discontinue your allopathic heart treatment - Manasa Tablet is usually not a cause of heart palpitations - It can be a great helper when palpitations are anxiety-induced - Start low and watch - Keep taking your heart medicines as prescribed
You are right to be cautious and it is always best to take medicines in a thoughtful manner
