hi i have been on propranolol for 2 week they have worked for me i start on 20mg now on 40mg the last 2 days just the first few days made me feel sick with headachs bad dreams i cant say its with them but i think so hope there ok for u big hugs

Yea well they seem to be working I was taking them for about a week then I went back to the dr and he said to just take then as and when I need them, so now I am only taking them when I have to leave the house, I've still had shest pain but it's not as bad.

hi ive been taking propranolol for the past 18mths. at first it was a god send, i could finally go out! now and again i would feel paniky but it wouldnt last. now however, it doesnt seem to be working, to the point where i hardly go out. the side effects of propranolol for me are, headaches, nightmares, bruising, and nausea. do not stop taking them tho unless ur doc tells u too, thats with all prescribed meds!

I have been on them for about a year, they work for me as long as i take them on a reg basis, they are a good med for anx. So do not worry about taking them, they do work. Take care.

they are used to slow the heart rate..works for anxiety-it takes "the pounding heart" out of the equation, hence can breath/relax etc..

for the past couple of weeks i've been taking 40mg 3times a day & they are helping with the physical symptoms a little. :0) they work better for me when i take them regularly. big hugs.

they helped alot stopped the palps id recomend them.

i have been on it for many years for palpatations. 80mlgs 2 times a day. i have never found it worked for anxiety except for racing heart. although i still have palps at times it times it does help. never stop taking it suddenly as it can cause chest pain and in some cases heart attack.the only problem i ever had with it is weak legs but never bad enough to stop it. it can cause nightmares in some people. but this is the first ive come across anyone using it for anxiety. ive learned something new. i take xanax for anxiety and it works well for me.

I was prescriped 80mg Slow Release tablets to be taken once a day for my Anxiety.

When I took the first tablet I felt a weird sensation in my body but a quite relaxed feeling. I also tried to think about all the things that might make me nervous but my body seemed to not react to any nervousness. My problem came when my chest began to feel very tight and my breathing felt like it became hard work.. It was not a good feeling and so I have decided against taking them any further. I suffer with Asthma so apparently I am not suppose to take them!

I was excited when I read it can possibly help PTSD type thoughts. But I got the side effects of the med, that being the shortness of breath. Though I can get that with the anxiety attacks, in this case it was the med, as I got it everytime I tried it. I did adjust the dose too.
I'm glad it helps some of you.
