How can I safely taper off propanolol?

Patient's Query

How do i safely get off propanolol? I am on 40mg all together. I take 20mg twice a day.

Answered by Dr. Bhaskar Semitha

It's very important to stop using propranolol safely. If you do not step down the dosage gradually you could experience symptoms such as fast heartbeat, chest pain or anxiety attack. Slowing down the amount taken over time as advised by your medical professional will help your body adjust more easily so ensure you speak with them before doing anything yourself.
