> #42I was given Propranolol 10 mg to be taken 3 x daily. I have found that "if taken regularly",it helps immensely with the anxiety. I had so much tension that I had trouble breathing. It also helps me with anxiety. I do not feel panic symptoms or have thoughts racing in my head.
I am tapering off of a Benzo and working and don't want to have to quit my job to complete the taper process. It becomes more difficult with time.
Propanolol...This med also helps me get sleep. I have moderately low blood pressure, but the amount that I take, 30 mg a day, is a tiny dose compared to what the docs give people who have blood pressure problems. Hope this helps someone. Yogagirl
