'''Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome''' ('''POTS''') is a medical disorder related to [[blood circulation]]. POTS causes those who suffer from it to feel faint and dizzy. The disorder causes suffers’ heart rate to increase by over twenty beats per minute when performing a change in posture, such as from lying down to standing up. This also results in [[exercise intolerance]].
POTS is currently not well understood by many medical practitioners, and treatment for POTS can range from adding [[salt]] to the diet and taking prescription drugs such as the [[beta blocker]] [[propranolol]].
