Probably not a good idea. Nitro glycerin will give you a large venous dilation and reduce oxygen demand on the heart. It also dilates the coronary vessels and allows more blood to reach the heart muscle. This is great for a person who is experiencing certain types of heart attack, but is generally not warranted for a racing heart. There is also a decrease in blood pressure which will produce an even more rapid heart beat. If you are experiencing pain with the racing heart then you should contact your local EMS.
