I couldn't watch the video. How well does propranolol treat PTSD nightmares?Propranolol has autonomic effects that lower heart rate and blood pressure (much more so than prazosin). There may be contraindications for some people to take propranalol.
The nightmares are probably the biggest concern for sufferers of PTSD.
