Patient summary
Propranolol from 10mg to 80mg, as tablets and modified-release capsules, used in the management of hypertension, angina, migraine and essential tremor.
Mechanism of action
A non-selective adrenergic beta-receptor antagonist. It blocks adrenaline and noradrenaline, reducing heart rate, force of contraction, and cardiac output, thereby lowering blood pressure and reducing oxygen demand.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Use only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Breastfeeding: Confirm breastfeeding suitability with a qualified clinician or pharmacist before use.
