A member asked:

I'm seeing a cardiologist because of frequent skipped beats. can i take propranolol before seeing him or does it make it harder to see what's wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't take: Don't take anything until you see him unless it was prescribed by another qualified dr who has already seen you and who refered you to the cardiologist.
