person-avatar

Asking For Self, Male 25, Islamabad

I have been prescribed Inderal by a doctor for anxiety related irregular heartbeat, but after using for 2 days I feel a little dizzy with droped heartbeat between 55-60. Is it safe for me if I wish to stop taking this medicine as I have used it for 2 days only?

No , stooping inderal suddenly is not safe. Decrease the dose gradually.

Control your anxiety without medicines with lifestyle changes.
