Treat the underlying problem. If your heart rate is consistently over 100 beats per minute, you may be suffering from tachycardia, or an abnormally rapid heart rate. This is particularly likely if in addition to the high heart rate, you are experiencing any of the following symptoms: dizziness, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, chest pain, or fainting. Tachycardia is serious and can lead to a stroke, heart attack, or even sudden death. It is important to see your doctor if your heart rate is consistently over 100 beats per minute, whether or not you are experiencing any accompanying symptoms.
