You should be fine with the propranolol and the Zoloft. Usually the propranolol dose for performance anxiety is fairly low and you take it as needed so do not know of any untoward side effect or problem.

I understand your distress. Zoloft is not a Specific Medication for Panic Disorder. Propranolol can bring heart rate down; however it is not a Specific Medication for Panic Disorder. Please see a Psychiatrist for: • Diagnosis • Therapy for stresses in your life •Discuss Medications for Panic Disorder • Monitoring of medication • Breathing Relaxation • Meditation • Yoga • Guided Visual Imagery
