I must comment on the Stephens Johnson syndrome because my father had it in November 1990. He spent a full month in the burn unit of the St. Francis hospital in Wichita Kansas. The medical professionals used steer wool in a sterile hot tub to and my dad coded during this procedure. I would not refer to this as a nasty rash since it was responsible for my father’s death. It was a horrible rash that caused his death from having horrible burns externally and internally. I appreciate your concern but Stephens Johnsons is a terrible syndrome that took my father’s life not just a nasty rash. 🌹💜💜 0:26

If I should forget to take it, the pain almost immediately returns. I'm so grateful for this huge relief from just 10mg !!! You have no idea how I have suffered for so long. But now😊!!!

Got prescribed this recently to take as needed. I'm glad to have an alternative to Xanax. I still believe Xanax can be helpful for me particularly for situational anxiety (e.g. I stopped going to the cinema for years and years due to a sort of social claustraphobia anxiety but last year I went to see Oppenheimer and Barbie and honestly w/o Xanax I simply wouldn't have). But having a Beta-Blocker now could work great for alleviating panic anxiety and panic episodes particularly when at home :) Panic feelings can become a cycle making it hard to just relax and this should help now.

I’m pleased that you explained what addiction meant and what physical dependence meant on this video. Simply to set the record straight for medical specialists that manipulate the narrative, or just for members of the public that mix them up. For example medical specialists that dislike benzo’s are likely to call physical dependence “addiction” in the case of benzo’s, yet would refer to the same thing as just “discontinuation” with SSRIs. I admit that Benzo physical dependence could carry more serious risks than SSRI physical dependence, depending what the risk factors are, but I both drugs the feeling of been unwell is still caused by the brain and body struggling to function normally once the drug is removed too quickly. I’m glad you pointed out that addiction relates more to cravings. I wouldn’t demonise any medications since they often are guilty of different pitfalls, but I agree then benzo’s aren’t likely to provide a long term solution for anxiety, and could possibly exasperate it even more. But then I’d also say that’s true with SSRIs. Most people that use them and stop too quickly re-emerge with a more serious form of depression than the one that got them on the medication. Members of the public have the right to understand that this is the consequence of physical dependence. But you explained this well here

All good points. I’m trying to push back a little on benzodiazepine demonisation. I do not deny the serious issues but I also feel that they are the most effective drug for anxiety and we know their major issues. We dont need to stop prescribing them. We need to have EDUCATED prescribing. No one should start a course of benzodiazepine treatment without a solid taper plan being discussed before starting.

Physical dependence can happen with many types of medications, even antibiotics and cause severe protracted withdrawal. Check out Dr. Josef channel 👍
Thank you for the info, I've been pretty nervous about starting this, my doctor took me of Clonazepam and prescribed Propranolol to be taken as a PRN. Unfortunately any new medication intimidates me, especially the side effects, I always seem to get it in my head that (side effects) are a guaranteed occurrence , So I'm likely to get all of the, lol...smh. Which is obviously just a ridiculous overreaction in thought process. I appreciate the clear and concise way you reviewed the medication, it was done in a way that was calming and in parts that I could personally relate to. Hopefully my side effects mostly just (Tired and at times having difficulty sleeping ) go away as my body gets used to the meds. Thanks again.
Approx. 6 yrs on 160 mg Propranolol to help with severe essential hand tremors and anxiety. It does help. Thank you for such detailed information. None of the many, many doctors I've been to have advised me on this. I was told 80 mg twice daily was the maximum dose. I have fibromyalgia (25yrs dx) and they give me lidocaine patches which I look the the Marshmallow man when I put them on where it hurts. Which is everywhere 😂. I didn't know about the contraindications. In addition to cymbalta to help with the fibromyalgia, and xanax for agoraphobia.
My life saver med, but I can only take it for 3 straight days before a day off, than back on because even at just 5mg it really sedated me.
Got my follow.
Good video. One important thing I dont think the video covers is cigarette smokers will have very reduced levels of propranolol. Just another reason to quit smoking !
I got propanolol today from a pharmacy without doctor's prescription, i have very bad social anxiety and I'll have to prepare presentations for university soon and i have been more anxious ever since. Do you think i should take them? I need some advice. Edit: i still haven't taken it.

I was recently put on propranolol for anxiety and palpitations. I am a soon to be medically retired service member who didnt start having palpitations until after I had covid. Now I find it hard to enguage in Cardio activities without triggering longer than normal palpitations. Once my palpitations begin it triggers my now much more aggressive anxiety. Do you think this will work for me or have any insight to how I can become active again?

Could you speak about Ritalin and Concerta and how do they differ even structurally, as tablets, and other differences between the two please?
@timothyayers8596
4 ай бұрын
Hi. I’ll provide you a response to your question. Both are methylphenidate. There is no structural chemistry difference at all. Concerta is just the extended release version of Ritalin (methylphenidate). Some forms of ER Ritalin have anti abuse additives , such as compounds that burn or irritate the nose if someone wants to snort it. There is not great evidence that these drugs work effectively in adults. They also come with a lot of baggage as they are schedule 2 drugs and heavily regulated. If you can avoid having to take them I would try. If you find it useful your Dr will likely try to get you to the controlled release version. Another issue is controlled release versions of many drugs actually result in sub clinical blood levels of the drug. Some people will , likely accurately, claim it doesn’t work as well as the immediate release version. Another issue to contemplate is that many Drs won’t prescribe these meds to an adult. I see a lot of people get on them because they have an open minded prescriber, only to be abruptly cut off if that prescriber retires or gets a love letter from the DEA regarding their schedule 2 scripts. So while they might make you feel like you can concentrate better there’s a lot of hang ups with depending on them. I hope this help and hope you feel better !

I was prescribed PROPRANOLOL for tremors, and it was helping with my tremors. Unfortunately, after taking the Propranolol for 3 months, I noticed side effects that were very concerning to me. I started having hallucinations and a red rash on my face. I was never informed of side effects and until I became so concerned about the hallucinations I did my own research and was shocked and relieved to learn of these reactions. I informed my doctor and he immediately started me on another beta-blocker that doesn't have the terrifying side effects of PROPRANOLOL.

when i took it, it did nothing, although the hydroxyzine it did work but i take seroquel and gabapentin if i take a hydro i basically induce a od and sleep for the next 8hrs, i now have a backup supply of klonopin it’s not even really addictive not because it makes you feel good like hydro, but it makes you feel perfect, like nothing can affect you it lets me think straight if i’m like, bambambambambambam and then it turns into an overload (panic attack) so then i have to take klonopin but now i’m hoping the gabapentin will start kicking in and i’ll be better, crazy how a medication for seizures and fibromyalgia can work so good for someone with an overactive brain

They need to up the dosage. It says 40mg or more would actually take care of anxiety related symptoms.
This dug is only useful in short term (single dose) control of physical manifestations of anxiety. It does not stop polarzation of neurons that is at the root of the mental anguish of anxiety. What are your thoughts on rebound hypertension (possible hypertensive crisis) upon abrupt cessation ? You are potentially putting a patient at possible risk of serious arrhythmia in order to dodge benzodiazepines ? I just wonder if it’s all worth the risk. This drug also interferes with sleep and if it induces hypotension can lead to a panic response. Again, I think the majority of people who tolerate benzodiazepines need to push back here because they are being drowned out by a very emotional minority who had horrific withdrawal. I dont take away from these people experiences, but those who use a drug for a few months to get them through an extremely difficult time do not form action groups or contact their legislature. I fear this class will be made unavailable for those who need and benefit from it.

Interesting, my psychiatrist and my Pharm D put me on this to counter tremors and spontaneous tossing of handheld items, like coffee. Tremors due to prolonged use of diazepam as part of bipolar cocktail. Can't take clonidine as causes me psychosis, but the propranolol does seem to help my tremors.
I hated propranolol, prescribed for atrial fibrillation. The smallest dose l started on made me so weak and tired that l felt l was carrying 25 lb. weights on each foot. The cardiologist l was referred to told me to stop taking it just before my first visit, and not knowing any better, l did as he said. The withdrawals were horrendous: l felt like fainting, my heart rate went up to 180 bpm, so he by-passed the stress test - and l was a-fibbing like crazy. It did *nothing* for anxiety. Nope to propranolol for me.

This medicine seems dangerous
You know a drug is based and good af when it has LoL in the name 😏
Good luck. More weirdness
Didn’t help the panic attacks in the comments to below. that list of side effects are 10 times more than the benzodiazepines that you do not like to prescribe are you sure you’re not related to Dr. death?
I take this. It does literally nothing for me at all. Total waste of money.

I wish to God I never saw the first one. I've been trying to destroy me since I was a kid. One thing after another. And now diazepine on top of it. I'm 57 and I'm going to die. From the abuse of the medical system.
This is what I take! Works wonders 🫡🇺🇸🦅
