A member asked:
Can the rebound effects of alpha1 blockers also include anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends!: Listed as an uncommon side-effect, but usually not. Coming off them is more likely, since the drugs decrease sympathetic nervous system activity. So if you mean "rebound" in stopping, yes!
