In reply to beta blockers for anxiety/panic? , posted by gdog on July 17, 2001, at 15:14:03
Hi. I've been using a low dose of atenolol to control the physical/jittery symptoms associated with general anxiety. I find it really helpful. It takes the edge off of things and I don't seem to have any side effects from it.
Emme> hi all,
> a friend just told me that she takes blood pressure meds - she called them beta blockers - for her anxiety associated with ritalin. she said they easily resolve the physical symptoms associated with anxiety, like palpitations, racing heart, shakes, etc. does anyone know anything about this? information would be great! thanks,
