It is not recommended to take an additional dose of Betaloc ZOK 25 on an emergency basis without consulting a doctor, especially in the case of symptoms such as pulse 102 and noticeable atrial flutter.
Betaloc ZOK is a beta-blocker drug that aims to regulate heart rhythm and lower blood pressure. Taking more than the recommended dose can lead to serious health problems, such as slow or irregular heart rate, shortness of breath, or fainting.
If you experience alarming symptoms, such as an accelerated pulse and fluttering of the atria, it is recommended to contact a doctor immediately. Your specialist can assess your situation and recommend appropriate action, which may include dose modification or additional tests.
If you have any further doubts, it is worth consulting your attending physician. If you are unable to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:
