Doctor prescribed me 10mg propranolol 3 times a day for 1 month for fast heart beat post covid and anxiety, ecg was normal and echocardiography too , is this a high dose ? is it necessary? and do i need to taper before quitting it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I have seen no reports of benefit from propranolol post COVID. Does work in some in anxiety. High dose would be 40 m 4 x a day. But have gone higher. Discuss with the Dr. who knows you.
