[quote=Anonymous]The most common medications (stimulants) do increase heart rate and my DC did initially have some palpitations from it. This seems to wear off as they get used to the medication.If you look online you will see reports of people saying that they try not to take their medication right before training because of that effect. If you choose to start medication you will obviously be working with a doctor so bring up your concerns to them. Now my DC uses the medication daily and doesn’t have any issues with exercise. The one issue is that these medications also seem to make him more dehydrated, so he sometimes gets headaches when he doesn’t eat and drink enough. [/quote]
