A member asked:

I have mitral valve prolapse, it is alright to buy a beta blocker without doctor's prescription?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Beta blockers are powerful medications and should only be used under a doctor's guidance. I do not recommend using it without your doctor's advise and follow-up.
