Weight gain on propranolol?

Yes absolutely I have gained weight since starting this medication 1 year ago…I just decided to check on this med as being the reason for it… I highly suspect that it is.

Yes I’m experiencing weight gain currently

As I remember it can cause low blood sugar levels so this would contradict maybe weight gain unless it actually made you feel less anxious and therefore ate more . Suppose it would have to be a trial to see if weight gain occurred .

I was recently prescribed propranolol for the with the same dosage, 10mg 2x a day. I too have experienced quick weight gain. It's been about 2 months and I have gained around 6lbs. I was curious if this was a common symptom and stumbled upon this thread. Wondering if I should request to try a different medication for anxiety?

I started taking it twice a day about 18 months ago, I instantly put on 3 kilos and went from 94 kilos to 110 at one point I told my doctor and he said try a diet, and that it was nothing to do with the meds, but I am convinced it is, I now diet and exercise every day and can’t get below 102 kilos doesn’t matter how much I exercise

According to the literature:
"Weight gain can occur as a side effect of some beta blockers, especially the older ones. The average weight gain is about 2.6 pounds (about 1.2 kilograms)."
"Frequency not reported: Weight gain"
I don't know how someone came up with "big" which isn't even professional terminology, but as Sidekick has said you'd be taking such a low dose that I wouldn't be overly concerned.

That’s such a low dosage, I doubt you will experience much of any side effects, if any at all.
