What to expect from propanolol? Seeking advice

It seems to help some but doesn’t completely take away anxiety. But she has trauma PTSD induced anxiety so it may be hers is exacerbated.

Ah yes, my partner also takes Atenolol for this( similar script) I hope it helps!

I took propranolol for a couple of years for my anxiety until I found something better for me and I have to say it's one of the nicer anxiety meds to be on. No crazy side-effects and it never changed my mood or personality like other meds do since all it does is calm your heart. The only downside I ever had was it did give me a few episodes of low blood pressure but that wont hurt you any more than the high blood pressure you get from anxiety anyway.

I've been on propanlol and currently taking Atenolol the sister medication of it. I didn't take either for anxitey. I take atenolol for high blood pressure and a heart arrhythmia. You should know that just stopping this medication can do a lot of harm such as elevated blood pressure, migraines and yes can even cause an arrhythmia when stopped abruptly. It can also cause low blood pressure because that's what it is mainly prescribed for is arrhythmias and blood pressure. It's considered a beta blocker.

Have you spoke to your Dr about your concerns? Your Dr should keep an eye on you while your on meds, I get my blood pressure checked and have blood tests every 6months.

Propranolol has really helped me. I suffer with panic attacks and since being on it they have calmed down a lot.
