Answered by Master, Doctor Le Thi Thanh Huong - Emergency Department, Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “What is heart palpitations with diarrhea after drinking alcohol? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Alcohol, beer is also considered a stimulant. So after drinking alcohol, you have a state of automatic nervous system stimulation, which causes the above symptoms. In addition, if after drinking alcohol you have vomiting or diarrhea too much, causing a loss of electrolytes (especially potassium), it will also cause the same condition.
So, the best way to avoid this situation is to limit drinking, or you only use alcohol in a moderate amount.
If you still have questions about diarrhea after drinking alcohol, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
