Palpitations refer to the sensation of having rapid, fluttering, or pounding heartbeats that can be felt in the chest or neck. This experience can often occur due to various factors, including emotional stress, anxiety, or as a side effect of certain medications. In the context of thyroid and antithyroid drugs, palpitations can be particularly significant as they may indicate changes in heart rate and rhythm associated with hyperthyroidism or the effects of treatment.
