penicillin and heart rate?!


Question:
hi, i am taking penicillin VK for my strep/tonsilitis and was wondering if antibiotics and penicillin speed up the heart rate a little? i noticed an increase in my heart rate lately since taking this penicillin VK, this is my 2nd on it..i dont really have any other side effects..
Answers:
increase in heart rate is from the illness not the penicillin. make sure you are drinking plenty of fluids and resting.

Other Answers:
This is not one of the side effects listed, but people react differently to medications. It would be beneficial to see your Dr.
