A member asked:

Propranolol is supposed to help thyroiditis, i took it today and got stabbing pains in my thyroid and i am sweating profusely, why is that?

Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Go to ER: You need to be attended to, propranolol isn't the main treatment for thyroiditis, you need other meds to control the symptoms, good luck
