What Is Propranolol 40mg?

Propranolol is a non-selective beta-blocker sold under the brand name Inderal. It works by blocking the effects of adrenaline on the heart and blood vessels, which slows the heart rate and lowers blood pressure. Propranolol 40mg tablets are FDA-approved to treat high blood pressure, chest pain (angina), essential tremor, and certain heart rhythm problems, and to help prevent migraine headaches. It is a prescription medication taken by mouth, usually two or more times daily as directed by your provider.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is propranolol used for?

Propranolol is a beta-blocker approved to treat high blood pressure, angina, essential tremor, and certain heart rhythm problems, and to prevent migraines. Your provider will determine whether it is appropriate for your condition.

Do I need a prescription for propranolol?

Yes. Propranolol is a prescription-only medication in the United States. A licensed provider must review your health information and issue a valid prescription before the pharmacy can dispense it.

How does ordering and shipping work?

After you complete a health questionnaire or provide an existing prescription, a licensed provider reviews your information. Once approved, your medication ships from a licensed U.S. pharmacy directly to your address.

Is propranolol used for anxiety?

Propranolol is sometimes prescribed off-label to help with physical symptoms of situational anxiety, such as rapid heartbeat and shaking. It is not FDA-approved for anxiety, so discuss this use with your provider.

How long does propranolol take to work?

Effects on heart rate and blood pressure typically begin within 1–2 hours of a dose. For migraine prevention, it may take several weeks of consistent use to see the full benefit.

Can I stop taking propranolol suddenly?

No. Stopping propranolol abruptly can cause chest pain, rapid heartbeat, or in some cases a heart attack, especially in people with heart disease. Always taper the dose gradually under your provider's guidance.

What should I avoid while taking propranolol?

Limit alcohol, which can increase dizziness, and tell your provider about all other medications you take, especially other blood pressure or heart medicines. People with asthma should not take propranolol.
