my family MD gave me this to treat my thyroid, said my harmones were off the chart. I am on heart medication since having bypass sugary. My blood presure is fine. I can not find where this med would help me at all. It says nothing about helping the thyroid. I have taken two pills and they make my face flush and give me the jitters. Thank you for any help you can give me. M.J. in Al.

I have been on this med since 1985 when my heart decided to have AFib. Lately, I would say since 2013, that it makes my nose run excessively. Not happy about that at all. So, now looking for another med that will work without the runny nose.

I was put on this drug for benign tremors of the hands. At first it worked like a charm, but now the tremors are back and I haven't missed a dose. Also haven't been sleeping well, awake most of the night. I'm going to ask my Dr. about coming off of it.

I HAVE BEEN ON THIS MEDICINE FOR 15 YRS AND DID GREAT. NO SIDE EFFECTS, IN FACT HELPED WITH MIGRAINS ALSO. ABOUT A YEAR AGO, IT JUST STOPPED WORKING. I HAVE TRIED SO MANY BP MEDS SINCE.... BAD SIDE EFFECTS, STILL LOOKING FOR A NEW BP MED THAT WORKS WITH NO BAD SIDE EFFECTS. I JUST WISH IT WAS STILL WORKING FOR ME. STILL HUNTING FOR ANOTHER "GOOD" BP.... I'M BEGINNING TO LOOSE HOPE! BP NOW IS 218/130 I'M ON BORROWED TIME LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO WORK. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS MEDICATION IT WORKED WONDERS FOR ME FOR MANY YEARS.Read More Read Less

MJ - I was given this drug when I was having severe problems due to Grave's disease (overactive thyroid). My blood pressure was a little high but my heart was racing and I was shaking like crazy. Together with anti-thyroid meds, conditions began to improve almost immediately. Took a while, but got back to normal.

I started this medicine when my dr. found that my headaches were frequent and my b/p elevated. This medicine has brought down my b/p and decreased the frequency of my headaches, but I am often very dizzy. (but in all honesty, I'll take the dizziness anyday over the headaches) :-)

I have been taking this medication for migrain for about 3 years and it has worked very well untill a year ago I started getting pain in buttocks thighs and hips, I had x rays on hips and spine and that was shown to be ok. I stopped taking propranolol and the pain disappeared. Started to take them again only took 10 days and the pain was back. Can only conclude this was down to medication as nothing else either in medication or anything had changed.

I was prescribed this medication due to a nerve disorder around my rt eye. It constantly looked like I was winking at everyone. After MRI's/MRA's and various blood work, my physician determined I had some kind of migraine headaches that only produce this side effect. If my eye starts closing thats my clue that I am about to get a migraine. Without propranolol HCL I get a full blown migraine. Light sensitivity, neaseau, the entire 9 yards. If I accidently miss a day or two my eye starts closing and someone in my family lets me know.Read More Read Less
