Whats the lowest my heart rate should be?!


Question:

Whats the lowest my heart rate should be?

hi, im an 18 year old male who suffers with palpitations, so recently ive been taking 80mg of propranolol capsules 1 a day. ive seen a cardiologist and the results were fine, my resting heart rate used to be like 80/90 but now when taking these its 50-70bpm it was 52bpm at 1 stage.... is this to low?

thnx


Answers:

Avg heart rate is around 72 BPM but normal is considered between 40-100 BPM. Anything less than 40 is considered bradycardia..above 100 is tachycardia. Unless you are a highly trained athlete then chances of your heart rate being around 40 is slim without other factors.
