Re: inderal, beta blockers

[Guest guest]

Inderal is prescribed for flushing when it is related

to what I can best describe as the " fight or flight "

response.

It is also used to lower high blood pressure and as a

prn medication for migraines.

It is also prescribed for stage fright and the sort of

heart-thumping, flushing responses some people get

when performing, for example.

I take it to control my blood pressure and it has had

no effect on my rosacea, which finds its roots in

allergy. I don't notice any difference when I take it.

My mom tried it several years ago for blood pressure

and said it made her feel " like a zombie " , but I

haven't had that experience at all. I feel find on it.

I have noticed that in situations that would normally

cause a rise in heart rate -- public speaking, for

example, I feel very little " excitement " .

Hope this helps.
