I have taken Visken (pindolol) and Concor (bisoprolol) and Nebilet (nebivolol) for performance anxiety. Visken had a good effect and it blocked heart-racing and trembling. But Visken had to many sideeffects like ed and bad sleep.
Concor did not help for heart-racing (although it's a beta1-blocker!)and trembling, but no sideeffects.
Nebilet (beta1-blocker) also did not work.
I was estonished that beta1-blocker reduce heart-racing during performance. Perhaps they need a longer onset (I only have taken it 3 days before performance)
Anybody has experience with betablockers during performance? (efficacy, sideffects,...)
