I spoke to a GP this afternoon and it was a little strange as he seemed to be telling me not to taper but to just stop taking the propranolol.

I explained that I had previously been told by a GP last autumn that this medication would need tapering otherwise I could have serious unwanted effects. He then said he’d prescribe me the 40mg SR to take a while although he didn’t think it would be necessary. Who am I to say he’s wrong but it’s not what the other GP said and the internet is full of warnings about tapering. Personally my feelings are it’s going to cost me more money for another script but I’m happy to pay if that’s the safest thing. Very odd though.
