For Migraine Prevention "From the age of 21, I started having about 4 migraine attacks a month. By 23, I was having about 3 migraine attacks a week! So around 15 a month. It was incredibly disabling and hard to hide. I had used up all my sick leave at work and my manager was beginning to notice. It was affecting my daily life massively and I started to get really depressed which made it worse. I have been on this medication for just over 7 months now. My neurologist told me to take 40mg a day (4 tablets). I'm not a fan of medications, especially because I don't have any high blood pressure. So I started taking only 1 tablet (10mg) every night before bed. I didn't have side effects, only mild lightheadedness 1 time and thats it. Almost immediately my migraines got less severe slowly as the months went by. After 2 months, my attacks were 70% gone in frequency. Now I am 7 months into the medication still taking 1 tablet daily and I now only have 2-3 migraines a month. They are now less severe and less frequent!!"

For Performance Anxiety "I take Inderal with Klonopin and other psych. meds. Helps blood with blood pressure but not a great anti-anxiety drug by itself. The only side effect that bothers me is too many nightmares at bedtime and blurry vision."

"I have anxiety issues which are horrible. My psych MD has graciously given me rx's for Xanax, Clonazepam and Elavil. A year or so ago, my primary care MD gave me an RX for Propranolol 40mg 4 times daily for high blood pressure. I recently read all the great reviews for propranolol for performance anxiety; I took two tabs and within half an hour, most of my anxiety (and tremors) were gone and stayed gone for most of the day. I told both MD's about it and my primary care MD gave me a new rx for it. What a blessing this stuff is......only problem is I can't 'finish' during sex, but if that's the price I have to pay, I'll gladly accept it. Propranolol works great for general anxiety!"

For Migraine Prevention "It's helping me a lot, no more headaches. Even my stress and anxiety are numbed. I always wondered what drug people were on who always seemed to remain unnaturally calm and now I know! I think it makes you more fatigue tho and causes nightmares which the anti histamine I'm taking already does so together they cause severe nightmares, but the good effects outweigh the bad effects for me."

For High Blood Pressure "I work nights so I took my 2nd dose of the day at 1am. By the time I saw the doctor at 8am, my blood pressure was 160/110. It doesn't work for me. I get no benefit, and most of the side effects."
