Common Questions and Answers about Inderal la treatment
inderal
On January 18, 2011, my doctor put me on Inderal LA 60 mg because a stupid doctor upped my thyroid medicine too much and my heart rate and BP went off the chart. I have not taken any thyroid hormone since January 18th. While the Inderal has helped lower the BP and heart rate, I am having significant side effects from it and just wondered if others had experienced the same thing. I am quite fatigued but the most disturbing thing is I'm having very vivid and scary dreams.
t aggravate tremors and so your feeling of increased head shaking cannot be attributed to Inderal. For a person with an essential tremor, the starting dose of Inderal is 40 mg twice a day. Based on the tremor response and/or Inderal side effects, your healthcare provider may increase or decrease the Inderal dosage.
Hence, the dose you are taking is suboptimum and may not be of any benefit in your tremor.
Metformin does not give migraines. I too suffer from migraines although I am being treated with Inderal LA 120mg for mine (i take it once a day, and haven't had a migraine in years). I am also on birth control, and never had any problems with it. I do suggest for you to see another doctor. A doctor not willing to help, is not the way to go. Can I ask, are you normal weight or overweight? I ask because sometimes PCOS can be treated alone with diet.
Results vary among people, but, for migraines, I was taking 240 mg Inderal LA (Propranolol slow release) every day, in divided doses, I was fine. One site I just viewed suggested dosing as 40mg twice a day of Standard Propranolol or 80 mg Slow Release once a day.
For the Standard Propranolol, they listed 640 mg as the maximum per day, in divided doses, so you're clearing that by a wide margin.
I also suffer from migraines (not period related) but you may need something along the line of Imitrex to ease the pain away and something like Inderal LA to control how many migraines you get. I've been on Inderal LA for over 5 years now and been a suffer since I was 15. As far as your gyn issues, you need a doctor. They need to run tests on you to confirm what you are dealing with. I know how you feel on finding a doctor, I had allot of issues with finding the right doctor.
Hi I have many different heart arrhythmias and I take Inderal la 60 , my heart rate is most of the time in the 50's
I am having a Colonoscopy and my Dr. wants me to do Magnesium-Dulcolax prep .
I feel that it would be dangerous to take it since that would probably increase my slow heart rate.
What is a safe prep for people with heart condition like that?
Dr. Chahine......I, too, have been diagnosed w/essential tremors. I have taken Inderal 60 LA for several years and it does help, but the tremors have gotten more intense over the years. (I am a 70 yr old female). I have tried to take mysoline and it knocked me out, so no more of that. Would increasing the dosage of Inderal help?
Thanks for the reply.....I agree the hardest part is taking propafenone 3x's aday.
Dr.had me stop the Propafenone( I don't really know why) and go on 80 mg.of Inderal LA....wow....I went to pieces as far as my AF....stayed on the propafenone for 7 days....got worse everyday.
With Drs' ok I went back to propafenone 325 x 3 and Inderal 10mg x 2 aday...maybe they will formulate a LA form of propafenone soon.
I used to be on Inderal (80mg LA and 20mg for breakthrough episodes) and after awhile it seemed to lose its effectiveness. I also took Xanax, but only rarely and it helped with the anxiety. At one point, I was put on a daily dose of Xanax and within a couple weeks, I realized I had to increase the dose and/or frequency to maintain the effect. I stopped taking it daily, and for the past 10 years, I have only taken it on rare occasions...
I have had essential body tremors for years and take Inderal 60 LA once a day for them. A few days ago I had to have steroid spinal injections for a herniated disc. Since then, my back feels better, but the tremors have gotten worse. Is this a reaction to the steroid and will it continue as long as the medication is in my body? I don't know which is worse, the terrible back pain or the tremors. The tremors are visible and can really drive you crazy.
I too suffer from them for the past 8 years and currently take Inderal LA 120mg once a day. It prevents the migraines, although sometimes my sinus headaches can trigger a migraine but its a rare thing. I know for me, stress triggers most of my migraines. Talk to your doctor. Im only being treated by my GP.
Told by primary that I will have to go on ACE inhibitor because this means my heart is not slowing between beats. By the way, I have been on 120 mgs a day of Inderal LA for severe migraines, throwing PVC and palpitaitions for 18 years -- fabulous medication. Question: Since my BP - diastolic is never (except one recent time after bites) above 80 and usually 60 to 74, this could be a false reading if the bites were in fact Lymes disease or not relationship?
I'm a 44yo Female who has been on Inderal LA 60mg for 20 years. I have recently starting having what I suspect is cold-induced asthma. At other times I also seem to have a dry cough, feel irritated in my trachea, have a raspy voice and have to clear my throat a lot. I don't notice any wheezing although I do think my deep breathing sounds different, more congested, hard to explain.
I do not have any experience with "inderal" but see it is a beta blocker that can be used to control/reduce high heart rate. I have used Toprol and Metroprolo, and in heavy dose. My experience is that those beta blocker do reduce the heart rate and in high dose will cause some dizziness in me. I currently am taking 50 mg of Metroprolo twice a day and have little or no side effects.
I was on Norvasc. Inderal la, long lasting Nitro and Nitroquick. My blood pressure was 80/60 most of the time. I felt like **** always tired, constant chest pain, headaches, muscle aches all I did was sleep. My new cardio told me to stop everything. Needless to say I need to slowly come off the enderal. But since Coming off everything I actually feel much better. I have energy again With no chest pain at this time. All muscle pain has gone away also.
i took it for about 14 mths for svt ,and i found it to be ok ,there are better ones for svt ,like neiblet{nebivolol} which is a more selective for the heart ,but inderal is known to be good for migraine as well...for the first few weeks just watch standing up quick and things like that ,it is better started on a low dose and moved up as needed,,but apart from that it seems to be well tolerated by most.
I have been on Inderal for many years for a tremor in my hand. Inderal is prescribed for short term anxiety like the kind you get before having to speak in public, headaches, and blood pressure. I have never had any BP problems on it, but my pulse is lower....which is a good thing! I wouldn't worry, I think you'll be fine, but if really concerned talk to your doctor about it. Take care!
