FAQ
Which Propranolol strengths and pack sizes can I order?
Propranolol comes as 10mg, 20mg, 40mg or 80mg tablets. The 10mg and 20mg packs hold 90, 120, 180, 270 or 360 tablets, while 40mg and 80mg packs hold 60, 90, 120, 180, 270 or 360. Larger packs cost less per tablet.
How is Propranolol delivered to Hong Kong?
Propranolol tablets are sent in plain, unbranded packaging with nothing on the outside about the contents. Payment can be made by Visa, Mastercard or American Express on a secure, encrypted payment page, or by Bitcoin or Ethereum. Card details never reach the shop's servers.
What is another name for propranolol?
Brand names for propranolol include Inderal, Bedranol, Ciplar, Dociton and Sumial. Propranolol tablets are a pure generic propranolol product and are not any of those brands. Here, propranolol can also be bought online as generic Inderal.
Can I drink alcohol with propranolol?
Drinking alcohol raises the amount of propranolol in your body, and the pair together can drop your blood pressure enough to make you feel faint when you stand up quickly. A single drink taken slowly is easier on you than a heavy evening.
Does propranolol affect blood sugar?
Yes. The racing pulse and shaky hands that normally warn you that blood sugar is dropping are the signs propranolol dampens most, so a low can arrive with less warning than you are used to.
What happens if I stop propranolol suddenly?
Stopping abruptly can set off chest pain that gets worse, a heart attack or a racing heartbeat. Because of that, the strength is normally stepped down gradually rather than stopped in one go.
Is propranolol used for anxiety?
It is sometimes used for the physical side of anxiety — a pounding heart, trembling hands and a fluttering feeling before a speech or an interview. The effect is on the body rather than the mind, so the racing pulse and the shakes ease while the worry itself is unchanged.
How does Inderal La differ from propranolol tablets?
The capsules release propranolol slowly, so one a day keeps the level steadier than two to four separate tablets. The active ingredient is the same; only the form and the number of doses differ.
About Propranolol
What propranolol tablets are used for
Propranolol is a beta-blocker: it blocks the effect of adrenaline and similar hormones on the heart and blood vessels, so the heart beats less forcefully and blood pressure falls. That is the basis of its use in high blood pressure and in angina (chest pain that comes on with effort). It also steadies irregular heartbeats, prevents migraines, eases some kinds of tremor and improves survival after a heart attack. The tablets come as 10mg, 20mg, 40mg and 80mg.
The first few weeks
Strengths are usually stepped up slowly at the start, so a change of tablet early on is expected rather than a sign that something is wrong. These immediate-release tablets are taken two to four times a day at fairly even intervals, because the effect wears off within hours. Swallow them with a drink of water. Keep the pack somewhere cool and dry.
Side effects worth knowing about
A slower pulse and more tiredness than usual are common at the start, along with nausea, loose stools and trouble sleeping; most of this settles as the body adjusts. Serious reactions are uncommon but include wheezing or breathlessness, ankles that swell, weight creeping up for no clear reason, fainting, chest pain, a sore throat with fever, and bruises appearing more easily than before. Propranolol can also blunt the early warning signs of low blood sugar, which matters if you have diabetes.
Alcohol, smoking and everyday medicines
Alcohol pushes up the level of propranolol in your blood, so a few drinks can leave you more dizzy or light-headed than you expect. Smoking does the reverse and can make the tablets work less well. Ibuprofen and naproxen, antacids containing aluminium, and cimetidine are the everyday medicines most likely to interfere with it.
Propranolol, Inderal and Inderal La
The tablets sold here are plain propranolol in all four strengths. Inderal is the same medicine under its brand name, with the same 10mg to 80mg tablets, and Inderal La is a long-acting 40mg capsule taken once a day. For the ingredient itself, its forms and its other uses, see propranolol.
