Charon could not have said it any better
I also have a script for propranolol, prescribed for my benzo detox and now have it for lingering anxiety.
Now it can be a God send or not worth it all depends on the person.
(it's basically a beta blocker) aka beta-adrenergic blocking agent. I't blocks the severity and effects of the action of adrenaline.
If you are someone who is prone to physical symptoms of anxiety that usually are caused by psychological anxiety (Anxiety in the mind)
Tachycardia, Hypertension, Tremors, Stuttering so on.
It will help dampen them down.
For me personally it's most potent at slowing the heart rate down, then tremors, I don't stutter much unless the tremors are severe.
The lowering effects of blood pressure My DR informed me come into effect more slowly after continuous daily use of two weeks.
But I think in a indirect way if your having an adrenaline rush due to panic, taking Inderal will slow down the heart calming you down physically thus lowering your blood pressure anyway within an hour or so. As long as you try to relax the mind.
So if you have no benzo on hand and start to get anxious or panicky taking an Inderal, and relaxing for an hour or two will make it more effective in my experience.
Now one big point, in no way does Inderal help psychological Anxiety (Anxiety of the mind)
So you will still feel anxious and thoughts would not be dampened, but on the outside you will look relaxed and in control.
Another point my Dr said there is no interactions taking a benzo and inderal simultaneously which would have a beneficial added effect. Although it could make you sleepy. So starting low on both at first so you know how you react to it
Hope that's given you some clarity Honstym.
QF
p.s forgot to add Inderal is best taken as per needed, as it can cause dependence and you wouldn't want rebound tachycardia and all sorts of cardiovascular chaos and would require a taper to come off completely! So keeping it as per needed if you want to avoid that, but of course some people need it daily which is also fine. My uncle has been taking it for as long as how old I am lol Just consult your doctor.

Success!
To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
