Hi PartyCloud (*smile*),
I've been on Inderal LA for a year now...for the same reasons as you. Meds cause either my heart rate to skyrocket or my blood pressure to stay consistently high (where I can actually feel it). And, of course, our lovely friend named ANXIETY.
I take 80mg twice a day...once when I get up, and once close to bedtime.
If you don't get much relief from 20mg, I'd ask your doctor for an increase. It's used for migraines at about 200mg per day....so you've got a lot of room to experiment.
And, yes....I had to suggest this med to my doctor as well. Does it seem right that the patient is the ONLY one doing the research?? *wink*
Take care, hon!!!
Sandy
