Beta blockers
Hi there all
Am looking for some advice. I have been a fairly heavy drinker for around ten years and have started to cut back, but have developed anxiety disorder (probably brought on by my heavy use!)
The doc has prescribed propranolol beta blockers for my bp and anxiety. I'm going to take the first one today but am still averaging a bottle of wine a night (this is down from a bottle of wine and a fifth of vodka a night) and want to double check peoples experience with them and alcohol.
Doctor did not say I should avoid it but panicking, hoping this will take the edge off my anxiety while I cut down further, have CBT counselling workshops starting in a few weeks too.
Being upfront and honest I guess I want to check I won't drop dead from 1 bottle of wine and 1 80mg slow release propanalol a day.
Hope your all doing well, best wishes
