In reply to Prazosin - SLS need advice and info *please*!!!, posted by ChicagoKat on January 31, 2013, at 10:17:09
I started on a very low dose of prazosin for PTSD/nightmares at night. I found that at the lowest dose, it didn't do anything, and at higher doses it made the nightmares worse!
I took it during the daytime a few times since there have been studies but didn't notice much of anything.
I am however now on Propanolol for daytime anxiety/ptsd/flashbacks and I think it has worked to reduce the intrusive thoughts I was having quite a bit. My main problem was daytime stuff anyway, not so much the nightmares, and in my case for whatever reason the doctor seemed reluctant to prescribe it other than just low doses before bed. Give propanolol a try if you haven't already.
