How long before my meds start to work on 40g propranolol 3 times aday for my high blood pressure and do they really bring your blood pressure down all I've felt is light headed and tingly feeling in my fingers ## Ps been on them for 1 week so far and blood pressure still same plus all my blood tests ECG as come back normal do I have to just give it time ## Daisy, have you seen any improvement yet? It can take about a month for these types of medications to reach their full effect in the body. If after that time, you don't see a result, then you most likely need to try a different medication.

Hello, I'm newly diagnosed with a corn allergy/intolerance. I've noticed my symptoms exacerbate when I take my morning medicine, which included Propranolol. Could you please tell me if corn of any corn byproducts or corn derivatives are in this medication. Since I've read that it's often in the capsules, it's making me concerned. And if it does contain corn can you tell me which Beta Blockers do not contain corn so I can pass the information on to my Doctor. Thank you in advance for your prompt reply. ## Can you please post back and let me know the manufacturer of the Propranolol you take, or the markings on them?

What ARE the differences between: Propranolol SA, and ER? Is it OK for my Pharmacists to substitute SA for ER? ## Yes, they are actually the same thing. The SA is an abbreviation for sustained action and the ER is an abbreviation for extended release, but they both designate that it is a time released formulation of the medication. You'll often see it abbreviated differently, some us SR, XR and etc. Is there anything else I can help with? ## what is the difference between propanolol hcl & propanolol sa

I found a small round pill that's sky blue with p 20 on one side and blank on the other side. The p is located over the 20. I couldn't find out what it is I googled it with no luck. Some say its oxycontin 20mg. But how do you know for sure? Does anyone know??? ## Hi renee - the pill which you are describing (round, blue with P over 20 on one side) is Propranolol 20 mg, which is generally used to treat anxiety and panic. It can also be used to treat a variety of other things such as migraines, tension headaches, hypertension, and angina. So, no, it is not Oxycontin, nor even a narcotic / opiate drug.

About a year ago I started buying propranolol 40 mg from Walmart instead of CVS to save money. The drug company Walmart uses is Pliva. I take this beta blocker for tremors and the effectiveness of the Pliva brand pills seems inconsistent. I am considering switching back to CVS. Anybody else had a similar experience? ## There can be fluctuations from one company to the other, but there shouldn't be with the same dosage from the same company. Who manufactures the ones that CVS carries? Have you tried asking Wal-Mart what they would charge for them?

This past month, Aug.,2011, Insurance refused to pay for my Inderal so I had to take the generic propranolol. After two weeks of dizziness, I looked for the inactive ingredients on the internet and found that propranolol contained sodium lauryl sulfate as an inactive ingredient. No wonder I was dizzy--how can that stuff be allowed in our prescription drugs? It's a detergent and skin irritant. I understand the liver cannot process it. Any comments on this? Thank you for your time Joyce ## The inactive ingredients can differ from manufacturer to manufacturer. Did you look for the ones specific to the manufacturers product that you were taking? In this case, the sodium lauryl sulfate is used as an excipient, which means that it's inactive, but acts as a carrier for the active ingre...
