Chronic unrelenting cough, may need a breathing treatment. i take beta blockers for pots; am prone to rapid hr. is the treatment safe for me?

It depends on drug: Some beta blockers are selective to beta 2 and will not effect lungs. Some beta blockers are non selective. You want a beta blocker that is selective to heart only.
