- Triggers can amplify racing-heart, heat and sleep symptoms.
- Medicine
- Follow the prescribed dose and monitoring plan.
What to be careful with
An overactive thyroid can make the body run faster, causing palpitations, sweating, heat intolerance, anxiety, loose stools and difficulty sleeping. Avoid or reduce caffeine from coffee, energy drinks and strong tea if it intensifies these symptoms. Do not start iodine supplements, seaweed products or “thyroid support” remedies without clinical advice; iodine can affect thyroid activity. Alcohol may also worsen sleep, dehydration or a feeling of a racing heart.
Helpful daily steps
Take antithyroid medicine, beta blockers or other treatment only as prescribed, and do not double a missed dose unless instructed. Keep cool, drink regularly, choose balanced meals and avoid exhausting exercise while symptoms are uncontrolled. Record pulse sensations, bowel changes, sweating and sleep so your clinician can see whether treatment is helping. Symptoms such as [Palpitations](/symptoms/palpitations/) or [Heat Intolerance](/symptoms/heat-intolerance/) deserve specific mention.
When to seek urgent help
Seek urgent care for severe breathlessness, fainting, confusion, a very fast or irregular heartbeat, chest pain, or a high temperature with marked agitation or weakness. Contact your prescriber promptly for new severe diarrhoea, worsening [Excessive Sweating](/symptoms/excessive-sweating/), or medication reactions. A planned review of [Hyperthyroidism](/conditions/hyperthyroidism/) is needed even when symptoms settle.
Questions for your doctor
Ask which foods, supplements and drinks should be limited in your case, what to do after a missed dose, when exercise is appropriate, and which symptoms require same-day advice.
