What are the differences if any between propranolol er 80 mg and regular propranolol 80 mg. can you use one instead of the other. any issues.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Propranolol: The drugs are actually the same. The er version is a slow release version of Propranolol which slowly releases Propranolol into the circulation. The daily amount of Propranolol is the same. With the er product, you just don't have to take it as often during the day.
