Avatar n tn can i take 5mg diazepam and 10mg propranolol together and what is the best dosage to work effectively for panic attacks and anxiety when public speaking?
Avatar m tn The beta blockers (Propranolol) helped a bit, basically stopped my heart beating so fast and getting panicky. The diazepam (Valium) well that did chill me out but its so addictive and the next day I felt like i was in a drug hang over until I took more. My shinning light and saviour Citalopram, it's used for depression and panic attacks.
Avatar f tn I have a history of migraines for about twenty years. I quit smoking 7 months ago, and started propranolol 20 mg once a day. I gained 30 pounds. My whole body is sore and Im having episodes where my upper body and sometimes legs just feel so heavy and tired I feel like Im going to pass out. Had a Head CT, Head and Neck CTA, CBC, EKG all were normal. Is it related to migraine? ER doctor said it is anxiety. Oh I stopped celexa five months ago because I was extremely fatigued.
Avatar f tn I read that too much potassium doesn’t work well while on propranolol because while on it the body does not excrete potassium as normally and you can get levels that are too high. Could this be the cause or is there an adjustment period while taking propranolol? I’ve been drinking pomegranate juice and cherry juice, 4 oz of each, with breakfast this past week. These are very high in potassium. Something is making me feel very strange and I’m hoping it wears off.
Avatar n tn Maybe deep down, the thought of me getting help triggered the happiness and then when it ended, i knew i wouldnt get the help anymore. Ive been on Sertraline, Prozac, Diazepam, Propranolol and Fluanaxol so i dont want to start up again.
Avatar m tn s the causes of depression? Does it relate to the neurotransmitter? Diazepam is an anti-depressant? It enhances the effect of GABA by binding to the benzodiazepine site on the GABA A-receptor. After binding to the receptor, may i know what's the next mechanism? GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter? If GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, how does diazepam can cause anti-depress? I heard that it can treat seizure?
Avatar m tn I have had sleep apnea for a long time, and have read that I should not be taking a drug like diazepam as this could be extremely dangerous. Is this true ?
Avatar m tn Does anyone know how propranolol effects exercise? I do triathlon and train using a heart rate monitor. I am wondering if I would be able to progress athletically given my heart rate would be lowered substantially?
Avatar m tn In addition I am tapering off diazepam and down to 2mg in the morning and 1 at night. Everytime I try to get off the concerta I get terrible anxiety from it. I have it to a degree while on it also. I want off but my dr who takes 3 weeks to get into anyway, won’t switch me to a med I can taper off of. I know 3 weeks is a short time compared to what most of you have been through. But can someone please tell me how long my withdrawals are going to last??
3122467 tn?1342138836 To deal with it, I take a beta blocker, propranolol, and it works beautifully. Not only does it take care of the akathisia it also treats anxiety. Once i ran out of propranolol because it hadn't arrived from the mail order pharmacy and the akathisia came back so I know two things... I still have it and propranolol stops it.
Avatar n tn Hi there, I was hoping someone could give some advice on what my issue may be. I have been going through the worst period of my life over the past 6 months. I'm trying to get out of my business and due over £70k but the other directors are not playing and it's all went legal. To cut a long story short its affected my mental health quite badly to the point I took a massive intentional overdose of over 130 pills and died but came back and survived.
Avatar f tn I got my period on 2 may this month and it was very light like a red/brownish and only lasted 2 days approximately and my periods normally last up to 5-6 days and are quite heavy. 2 weeks later I have come back on again this time seems normal I'm quite heavy. Has anyone else had this problem or similar and would you say it's something to worry about I just want to talk to people with the same situation so I feel comfortable and can kinda put my mind at rest a little.
Avatar f tn re not also busy diagnosing and treating the flu and heart problems and body pain etc. So theoretically they become much more expert in it and the interactions between drugs and things like quitting smoking and also in the appropriate drugs to prescribe for a certain condition. Beta blockers, for example, have only been found effective for social anxiety, which doesn't mean they don't work for some people for other things but that's not their main use in anxiety treatment.
Avatar m tn It reduces cognitive function long term,libido,you would not be able to drive some people will lie to thier friends and family AND thier Doctor over thier Diazepam taking habits (as in how much they eventually take as one dose). I never drank Alcohol to excess, but after massive urological surgery I was given it as a muscle relaxant, I was on it 10 years,10 LOST years.
Avatar m tn Hi all, I was commenced on xanax 12 mths ago for panic attacks. My GP (and to be honest me) felt we needed to keep increasing the dose. Within 3 mths I was on 6mg per day (in 3 divided doses). It almost cost me my marriage, job, home and friends. I found a new GP, whom recognised what was happening (i.e. I was addicted to xanax and loving it but a voice in the back of my head told me things were not right - hence finding another GP).
Avatar n tn It is not - these things are very hard to regulate. Secondly, (and please someone prove me wrong as i hope that I am) I have never heard of diazepam coming in capsule form - all that I have ever seen or heard of is in a tablet of some sort. Why did you not just get this from a doctor? Sure doctors are a little expensive to see if you have no money; however, the prescription itself is not that expensive at all.
3166043 tn?1514260018 I was wondering how "bad" this pill is? I take 5mg twice daily along with propanol and my lexapro but I see people saying not to stay on it for long and I've been on it a little over 2 years. I also take a pill when needed during a panic attack. I'm afraid what it's doing to my body besides helping the anxiety and how long are you supposed to be on it?
152264 tn?1280354657 I was told not to take diazepam as it will also suppress baby. Particularly in first and last trimester.
Avatar n tn Is Valium only used for a short period or for long term treatment for panic attacks and anxiety?
Avatar n tn I also take the Propranolol twice a day for my heart. The Propranolol was prescribed for my heart and never for anything else. Now I am currently taking Propranolol in the morning along with Paxil, at night I take Propranolol again. I take the Klonopin is taken as needed twice a day.
1352638 tn?1277025232 1/4 of a 4????? What exactly does that mean. I take 1/2 of 5mg and it just relaxes me. It is more of a muscle relaxant. I don't understand your 1/4 of a 4. What is the 4? And yes. Anxiety can do all kinds of things to you.
Avatar f tn In the end, NOTHING could control the levels and I had RAI and TT in 2008.
