Performance Anxiety: It is perfect. It is not better. It is the right choice for this situation. Millions of people use Propranolol for this very "performance' anxiety problem.

I'm on day two weaning off 20mg propranolol (for anxiety) so I only take 10mg a day now but I'm worried to get a panic attack now as I heard withdrawing from this medication is dangerous?

I was just prescribed 10 mg of propranolol twice a day as needed for anxiety because my heart rate can reach 160 and Bp 170/100 depending on how bad the panic attack is. However, my resting heart rate is 55 - 60, will it lower my heart rate more?

Should I consult with my doctor before taking 10mg of propranolol? It was prescribed by my psychiatrist due to high bp during panic attacks.

If propranolol only helps to reduce the "physical" symptoms of a panic attack, what. Symptoms can I still expect to feel?

Hey, I was having a panic attack and took 10mg propranolol. About a 30 min later my heart was still racing and so I took a .25mg klonopin. Is this ok?
