Dr. Ira Friedlander answered

Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

Beta blockers: are safe and effective. In fact they are one of the medications that tend to prolong life by reducing the adverse effects of high catecholamine levels during times of stress. If it works for you and you can obtain the medication then no problem long term.
