Propranolol

- Originally introduced in 1962, propranolol remains among the top 50 prescribed drugs. This beta blocker treats a variety of ailments ranging from exercise induced chest pain or angina pectoris to high blood pressure. It additionally controls heart rate in atrial fibrillation. Propranolol may improve essential tremor and prevent recurrent attacks of migraine headache.
If begun within a week or so after a heart attack, propranolol offers the potential of avoiding another cardiovascular event. It also slows the heart rate in those with an overactive thyroid gland, steadies the hand in sporting activities including archery and reduces the likelihood of esophageal bleeding among individuals with cirrhosis.
Bronchial asthma, heart failure and an already slow heart rate generally suggest avoidance of propranolol. It may mask early symptoms of hypoglycemia in diabetics and may actually precipitate chest pain or a heart attack if abruptly discontinued.
Over the decades since propranolol won FDA approval, several other beta blockers have significantly eroded its market share. Other more popular drugs in the same family include metoprolol, carvedilol and atenolol.
idk why but watching this man talk about medicine is so fun
I think it is because he talks about things that common sites do not say.
drugs have fascinated humanity since, well, before. Way before history, that is for sure. Great channel!
Lol I thought I was the only one!
I thought it was because of his cadence and the way he move his mouth
Hes good
I love this man's approach. It's so informative and you can just tell that he cares a lot about the subject matter!
It sucks that he passed

RIP doctor ❤
There couldnt have been any more information in one video! Amazing.
I now have to binge every one! Thank you Dr.
Rest in peace Dr
This guy is a 💎. Love his noodle!! 💓
He passed away. Great doctor he was.
Shame ☹️
Too bad. He looks very good here, healthy.
It’s sad 😢
I love how much information you actually give.. thank you!
Thanks so much for doing this!!! Been taking this for 10 years it’s improved my quality of life so much!!!
What life symptoms were you having prior to propanolol?
@@SAMEntalhealth heavy heart palpitations (forceful beats, not skipped) after eating or mild exercise after extensive testing nothing was found and bp always great
@@retroonyoutube5402 yeah your metabolism was quite pronounced
@@retroonyoutube5402 your digestion process
@@SAMEntalhealth what do you mean?
That was Great! Thanks. I'm going to watch all of your other videos now.
I know so many doctors that should be required to watch this dudes channel. The amount of wrong medication being given is an atrocity
Thanks Doctor, sharing your knowledge is much appreciated.
I started taking 10mg propranolol as needed for anxiety. Its a life saver for meetings at work when my heart rate goes through the roof.
Can you take it long term as an everyday maybe a low dose
Amen!!!
Any adverse effects?
@derrickcover8930 Had trouble sleeping the first few days and some bad dreams but after that I was fine. Its a common side effect
@jer1776 it take adrenaline rushed away? Panic symptoms?
I’m 24 was prescribed 25mg of atenolol because my blood pressure was 145/90 rarely went under 135/80 pulse always over 100. Now my blood pressure is right under 120/80 and pulse at 80. I feel a lot calmer. This video was helpful
Its also a pretty good beta blocker like propranolol
I wish you'll get well soon. I am also around your age but suffering from all these due to hyperthyroid, stress and anger by situations so it can be worrying and I can empathise with your condition
God i took atenolol for 6 years it was pure hell
My sister took Atenolol she had to get stents put in
How are you doing now? Still taking this medicine?
Thank you for your videos. I've recently been prescribed 3 different meds for migraines and this is helping me understand. Hopefully you cover the others too. Keep up the good work
wow rare to find someone who is really aware of everything that comes out of his mind
I'm on 80 mg for hypertension and migraines. It works very well for me.
Yeah I was on it for anxiety at first but I'm not discovering I just have hypertension too... Might have to up my dosage to that 80. I'm on 20 twice a day now.
Learning is so much fun to me, great video!
Great channel, keep up the good work putting out this important information.
Thanks, will do!
@@wellnowdoctor5976 please come back
This dude is a god, literally
Haha love him.
لا إله إلا الله ☝️
Every word sounds like poetry...
I.... absolutely love your videos
this man has had experience i trust him
Started using propranolol 10mg for anxiety and so far feels great, I don't really get nervous in social situations anymore like racing heart, flushed face, and it gave me a little more confidence in social situations, works well for me
Kudos for the video content! Apologies for chiming in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you considered - Manaajark Harder Blueprint (do a google search)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for getting a hard erection on demand without the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my work colleague at very last got great success with it.
How do you personally take it if you don't mind me asking?
@Huda Hassan Hey Huda, I used 10mg propranolol and I had a public speaking class and the results were pretty great during that time. I hardly use it now as my anxiety got better over time (possibly through the propranolol medication and also through working on myself and my depression). Keep in mind, I was also diagnosed with severe generalized anxiety, so check with your primary care doctor to see if the medication or dosage would be right for you. Good luck
Thank you. I started mine today this is very helpful 🙏🏼
I just started it for anxiety. I'm happy to hear it works well ❤
The vivid dreams on this medicine are intense.
My baby son takes this for a hemangioma on his skin. It has worked really well. I have noticed his hands are colder in the evening. I am not a doc/pharm guy but I imagine this is due to vasoconstriction. Doesn't seem to present any issue. Thought I'd mention this hemangioma thing because I felt it pretty interesting/unusual that they use beta blockers for skin conditions. But it really works. A great video as always.
Very informative iv used propranolol for heart palpitations was good but the insomnia was not good. I agree more of the same material different compounds should be available.
I love listening to him
Unfortunately he passed away:(
Taking the 60 ER twice a day. So far so good. Thanks.♦️
How long have you been taking it, and do you have any hair please just starting?
I would like to know as well.
Thanks
Huzzah to this Dr. for saying that before taking a prescription for hbp, try diet and lifestyle changes 👍🏻
Thank you for the information, my doctor gave me the choice of trying this for anxiety in relation to agoraphobia that felt like it was starting to interfere with my life, makes me feel confident about trying it out!
@Balthasar Krause I can imagine that’s been a pretty difficult journey for you, some of the anti anxiety meds sound like they have some nasty side effects? It’s been great so far, the first couple of times I took it I noticed the side effects a lot more ( I took it quite frequently) but now I try and only take it if I feel I really need it and aside from the insomnia it’s great 👍 I haven’t noticed any come down or anything when I took it for 2 or 3 days at a time and then stopped

I take 10mg three times a day for anxiety. It works very well. I also have essential hand tremors that the medicine helps. I have one warning. Do not stop taking this abruptly. I ran out and was too lazy to get my prescription. I ended up in the ER with a panic attack. No bueno.
HOW MANY DAYS WILL TAKE IT PREPRANOLOL FOR ANSIENTY
HOW MANY DAYS WILL TAKE IT PREPRANOLOL FOR ANSIENTY
@@Nuuriz Propranolol works immediately. About 20 minutes for full effect.
I used to have severe hand tremors. Ended up in ER wth Afib. Was told I have hyperthyroidism/grave which caused Afib. No more tremors. But I have gained alot of weight & B/P went from 112-120s/70s to low 80s to 140s/80s. I do not get it. I never had higher pressures before but always fast heart rate. I do not like the continued weight gain
@@ebear6555 140/80 isn't too bad.
Wondered off while reading all the book titles on his shelves
Kratom has these effects as well. I love propranolol
Hes knows his medicine I watched all his videos
Please could you do a video on Azathioprine in treatment of Crohns Disease. Great channel
Could you explaining about Metoprolol
now?
By the way thank you great channel Doctor.
I 😍 Propranolol
hello, i took 40 mg to prevent migranes and for a year it worked well
at some point the migrans came back
the doctor increased the dosage to 80 and now i suffer many side effects
i got prescribed this for intense panicking, muscle cramps and PTSD after being stabbed and brutally attacked on the street. For me, this drug makes my hands and feet go cold and i get a feeling of acid reflux and heightened depression, it doesn't seem to ease my symptoms... It's a shame because I had high hopes when the doctor told me it should do the trick! :(
i take the inderal 40 mg for essential tremor for over thirty yrs
How a genius looks like
You have to wonder if these drs. ever actually try these medicines before handing them out like candy.
Wow! What Dr.’s are handing medications out like Candy? That is not the case where I live.
@@musicismagic3001 where is that, under a rock?
@@stefanbernhard2710 No. I live in reality. I just asked you a simple question.
It's best medicine in the world they know what they doing
@@qlitlj4404can say that again
Last 6 years a m taking ssri or snri but it's increasing my fear and anxiety I dnt knw why now I stopped and I feel better
Thank you for all your info. I learn a lot from you. I've been taking Metoprolol Succinate 25mg for well over a yr now and I feel it's caused Lots of Fluid in my Legs... Can you plz tell me if that can happen from.that medicine? Bc it's the only thing I can think of unless it's from my mild venous insufficiency in my legs?? Idk for sure? Used to take Cardevedilol and Lisinopril for high bp for over 10yra... had low bp and low sodium last March was in hospital overnight from all that and my heart Dr of 10 yrs chgd my meds.Plus I've gained about 20lbs since then as well. NOT TOO HAPPY ABOUT THAT AT ALL.... But keep up your Amazing work here. Stay Safe from the Corona Virus. 😷 Take Care. 😊
I take 10mg as needed for my anxiety/panic attacks. Amazing drug
Yes I'm the same... been taking it for years to help with anxiety. It doesn't cure it but can temporarily reduce severity. Has helped out a lot when I'm under a lot of stress or feel panic. 10mg is lowest dose, sometimes I can take much more than that (up to 80mg-100mg a day) but it can make me feel dizzy and very tired.
How do you do this? Everytime I think about or hear about a medication a video pops up about it within a week or so. I just started this medicine for anxiety a couple days ago
Same. How's it working for you?
T M honestly works great. Can’t feel it’s there but I don’t get the racing heart
I like you're theme song
Thank you , I am afraid to start this medication to prevent migraines as you mentioned the side effects , in addition I have low thyroid levels and take levothayroxine 75 mg every single day and I don’t want another prescription and be addicted to it ..
If you don’t want to feel tied to a medication, I hate to say it but propranolol might not be for you. I’ve taking a year and half at 60 mg ER for migraines as well. It certainly helped the migraines be shorter. Where the worst pain was days, it now only lasts for hours. But you can’t ever miss a dose and you will start to feel it in your body when you don’t take it on the hour ever day. Opt for ER so you don’t have to take it multiple times a day. Less withdrawal sensations in the hours before you take it.
@@Groovygal2026 whats ER ?
@@Cos3D Extended release
Why does it cause hair loss? I just started it and it is greatly helping with anxiety bit I’m reading horror stories about hair loss and weight gain and I don’t think i can take that additional anxiety. Thanks I’m advanced ☺️
I have always had fine thin hair but have noticed more thinning hair & weight gain😞. Why?
So does it cause hair loss???
Does it cause hair loss :( , I was thinking about taking this for anxiety but I used to take Kratom which is very addictive and bad withdrawals plus hair loss .
@@ebear6555 dude your eating food this doesnt cause weight gain. Stop over eating. Simple
@@poptart7548 no it does not.
Who doctor house was based off of
I got it for shakes from alcohol use
Can this drug be taken as needed or does it have to be taken daily. Great video by the way. I was also prescribed for Anxiety. How does it differ from benzodiazepines?
I take it as needed :) maybe once or twice a week. No issues.
It just helps slow the heart rate and other anxiety symptoms like shaking, sweating, trembling. It doesn’t work on your mental state. Benzodiazepines work on your mental state by slowing down the brain.
@@Kingboo1081 low low dose of both helps wonders
Do not take a benzo. Don't do it. Horrible medication.
@@Kingboo1081 benzos are very addictive and go through hell coming off them
I am a musician/singer i had to stop taking it because it made me feel so tired on stage ended up damaging my voice.
I have severe PVCs and take 40mg of propranolol twice daily.
Lately, my PVCs have grown incredibly worse.
Of course, I also have issues with anxiety and panic attacks.
Could my 40mg of propranolol be a bit too much medication
and making my PVCs worse? Any ideas?
I have been prescribed exactly the same today for anxiety and cptsd also
Hope your doing ok
I take 10mg for hyperthyroidism symptoms, but it’s not helping at all.
Can I use Propranolol with bubropion?
A question for doctor.
I take propanolol for high heart rate. I tried lots of batablockers but none of them work as good. Propanolol is good for people who have low blood pressure and high heart rate. What other batablockers are as good as Propanolol for high heart rate?
What about high blood pressure and low heart rate (actually I think the Propranolol lowers my rate).
I take 10mg TiD of propranolol for sometimes chest pain plus anxiety

Yes, I think this medicine is safe, अभी आप कौन की medicine use कर रहे हो।
I been taking this a few years for tachycardia
Any hair loss or weight gain? Is it helping you? Thanks in advanced.
Haha had both before taking
Its hit and miss..i have taken them for eight years now....for heart palpitations/anxiety ...
I have read lately about some NOT so good effects of taking these.....so im glad i dont take a really high dose...as trying to come off them....has to be done gradually and carefully.
The research online seems conflicted; some says Propranolol is good stuff; other research says it can cause AV node block (arrhythmias caused by the electrical system of the Atria and Ventricles being blocked or short-circuited by this drug) and even heart failure, in certain populations. I tried to taper and got down from 120 mg to 80 mg/day over thirteen years or so; and then down again, to 20 mg/day in 2023. I could not get off it completely yet due to high heart rate, significant palpitations, high blood pressure and irregular heartbeat.
I took 120mg of propranolol for flying anxiety and it really didn't make a huge difference at all. I still felt very uncomfortable whilst in the air. Does anyone have any better recommendations for something that will actually work?? A friend has suggested mirtazapine. Would they be better ?
Jesus Christ a 120mg! That’s a huge dosage I take 40mg daily split into two doses. I’m surprised you didn’t have any side effects.
@@KBubba they didnt seem to do squat for me. I took them for the outbound flight and the inbound flight. Thank god the flight was only 1hr20 and not 2hr 30 like the original destination.
Peranol is safe for peregnancy?
Yes I took it. All is fine.
He passed away!!!!! Omg no!!!!
I took it, like 80mg extended release (in divided dosages) just for one day and next day I felt eye pain, cloudy vision, extreme sensitivity to light, halos around lights. I stopped it then and there. Would the eye symptoms go away?
Sounds like a migraine minus the migraine part lol
80 mg that is insanity that is WAAAAY TOO MUCH
Ocular Migraine.
@@mikelinberg4527 its extended release, so 80 mg throughout the day so not too much
Best to get ck up really really good..
Took 1 pill and had chest pain for a week. Never again.
Interesting , is that a normal side effect? What did the doctor say?
Could have been physiological
I take 40mg twice a day as needed for anxiety:)
It works?

Glad to hear that. I was just prescribed it for this. Has it caused you hair loss or weight gain? Thanks 😊
I read that beta blockers as a Class are now considered useless in terms of death and comorbidity. Is that true?
