Propranolol - Inderal: Long Term Use Effects?

hi nurse,
I started taking propananol back in 1994 and I never had any side effects.
if anything I found that taking setraline etc left me feeling drowsy for days on end
and so I now avoid taking them despite my long term daily anxiety disorder.
out of all the medication I have tried since 1994 I think propananol is the best for anxiety problems.
one tablet tends to be sufficient to calm nerves and there are rarely any side effects.
and so I would suggest you continue taking them?
I hope this helps?
take care
best wishes
rca

I have taken beta blockers, the kind of drug propranolol is for more then 40 yrs. I have never had any problems with them.

Morning holinurse;

This has been a miracle drug for me I am a agorophobic and take xanax originally with a 20 mg Inderal I have told the doctors don't give me the xanax if i can't take the Inderal 20mg with each xanax. I have been on it about 25 years and no bad effects for me stopped the heart from running away from me.I know longer get Migraines I am now on the 80mg S.R. once a day and it continues to be a life saver.Also as my old job as a pharmacy technician I seen this used alot for anxiety and they also use it for people giving speachs in frount of many people and it stop the fear and stuttering I like the timed release much better in the early years it was causing depression.out side of that i have never had any problems and it stops the triggers that bring on a full panic attach.So far i do not know of any long term effects..from when i was filling rx's to taking it myself Best wishes for a anxiety free or as good as it gets..
