Propanolol (med) for text anxiety...


Question Posted Friday September 26 2008, 12:33 pm

I have been prescribed propanolol (20 mg) to deal with test anxiety, probably more on a short term basis. I have heard that taking even 10 mg would be okay, but am not sure if I should do that, or take the whole 20 mg.

I am 24, F, weigh about 120 pounds (approx. 54.5 kg)..so you have an idea of my weight/age range.

Also, for anyone who has taken propanolol, how has it helped you deal with anxiety (test anxiety, stage fright, etc)? And how long does it stay in your system? Thanks

Additional info, added Friday September 26 2008, 12:34 pm:
* Information on recommended dosage, how long before an exam I should take it, how many hours its effects should last, etc. would be very helpful..

Hey there!

I was on Lexepro, which helped but made me sick. i was recommended to webmd.com to help make a decision on the best anxiety pill.

Since you are looking for client responses, this web-site carries a whole bunch.

Hello there,

Nobody here will be able to answer this. Even if they were a doctor, they would need to know your history.

The information you are asking for should have been given to your by your physician, pharmacist, or both.

Those are the people you will need to contact for best results. This is your health we are talking about here, and propranolol is nothing to mess with if you don't have precise instructions.

Please call your doctor/pharmacist about your propranolol prescription. Propranolol dosage is something only they can help with.
