Hi, I’m posting this here because it seems to be the place although I was actually prescribed 80mg slow release propranolol for hopefully migraine prevention. Having said that is it takes the edge of anxious thoughts I’m not going to complain and I’m guessing some of you take it directly for anxiety.
I know it was primarily developed to lower blood pressure and heart rates. Now even though my Drs know my BP is not high (my top figure is usually under 120) and my resting heart rate tends to slow (it’s never actually very slow in the Drs but my over all figure from my sports watch is usually around 60 at most) they’ve still prescribed it. I took my first dose this morning and checked my watch, already it seems to be dipping into the 40s although the average is 53 which isn’t too bad. I feel absolutely fine, no dizziness at all. Anyone else had this low reading? |
