This is normal for these drugs. My best responses to medication involved tricyclic medications that elevated my heart-rate from 56 to 120. You are reacting to the drug exactly as you should. Please do not stop it for this reason alone. Unless you have a heart condition, I can't see any reason to. You can get an ECG to be sure that nothing else is going on.I found that my heart rate decreased over time.
I hope this helps to ease your worries.
Sincerely,
Scott
