Specializes in Internal Medicine

Depends: The two can be taken together if indicated but should be started when you are at home . Propranolol and Alprazolam may have additive effects in lowering your blood pressure. You may experience headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and/or changes in pulse or heart rate.
