This medication is not for the treatment of anxiety it can only help in palpitations by reducing heart rate. Better you discuss your problem in detail with a psychiatrist so that proper root cause can be identified and accordingly treatment can be suggested. All the best.

Believe at age above 60, even systolic blood pressure till 150 is acceptable. Once in a week bp monitoring, mild reduction in salt intake (after monitoring electrolytes balance), and then periodic review with your doctor should help. If you have been using propranolol fro some time, then it is clinical judgement, but pls don't suddenly start it at 80 mg/day, as it can cause sudden fall in blood pressure.

Betacap is known to cause erectile dysfunction in few patients, in view of your heart rate it was probably prescribes to you, but you can consult your treating doctor for change in medication. Also the cause of your high BP and fast heart rate should be thoroughly investigated, please consult a cardiologist regarding the same.

If your you are taking it for hypertension you have other safer options to use for long term as you" ll have to take medicine for bp always. Taking it for anxiety, tremors etc you should not have to take it for that long. Then it is not a problem. Consult a doctor before stopping medication.

Betacap TR is given for hand tremors (vibration) not for BP. So let her continue it. Check BP regularly ,as you said it can decrease BP aswell.

Stammering can be made lesser only and only by Speech therapy. So you should take the help of a speech therapist. Also, I'd suggest you to visit a Psychologist as confidence plays a great role in dealing with this problem.
I'd suggest you to speak very slowly, word by word. People may make fun of this but believe me, slowly you'll get better at it.
Hope your query is answered. Feel free to ask if you have any doubts.
Wishing you good health.

Dear user. Glossophobia or speech anxiety is the fear of public speaking or of speaking in general. Various treatment options are available to treat glossophobia. Certain drugs such as beta blockers may be used to help people relax before speaking in public. Complementary therapies such as hypnosis, meditation or psychotherapy can be quite beneficial in helping you to overcome glossophobia. I suggest online counseling and hypnotherapy. Take care.

Your BP is on the lower side, if you are experiencing any symptoms like weakness, giddiness etc then you should consult your treating doctor for stopping this medication and giving you some alternative medication. If you are not experiencing any side-effects, still inform your treating doctor so that they are aware of this and take lot of oral fluids like water, coconut water, lemon juice, lassi etc
