Hi,
I started taking 80mg of propranolol before my holiday. I then decided I didn't need them and went on to 40mg. When I got home I've slowly reduced every week I'm now on 5mg every 3rd day. After 2 days without my body feels really dithery especially my neck and middle like a tremor.
Could it be a withdrawl thing?
Hi Amy-
This is definitely withdrawal symptoms! It sounds like you are trying to go off it too fast. It took me 3 months to come off this drug. I felt some strange symptoms and took a dose every other day for a while....you need to listen to your body. Drink lots of water with electrolytes & liquid b12 helped too!
Yes withdrawal. It's awful. My shaking and anxiety lasted a good five weeks.
Still got the anxious tummy feeling.
Can't believe this drug affects your whole body.
I only took it for migraines too.
Good luck 🍀
I only took it for a couple of weeks properly. I had it for about 3 months last year and never experienced the shaking. I just struggled with a racing heart last time. I will just carry on with 5mg every third day I can't understand because it's s tiny dose. I was hoping to just stop on Monday.
I wish I hadn't bothered. They didn't help my migraines or anxiety and now all this trouble coming off them. Oh and the weight gain 😔
Hi...definitely withdrawal.. by taking it every other/third day you are still keeping your body addicted to it....
Is it for anxiety???
I will see if I can find a help for the withdrawal...
Meanwhile-place the 5 mg (is that the size of the tablet?/) in a little bottle... add 10 ml water.(whatever that is in ounces)..
Take 5 ml = 2 1/2 mg for a week.. I use a syringe to measure..
Then halve it again for a week...
Continue this way till finally off the stuff..
