> Hi, I'd like to know about the effects of Propranolol for anxiety symptoms, particularly for Social Anxiety. If anyone has tried it please share. Also, can it be used daily or is it more of a situational type of treatment. Thanks!

It works very well for the physical symptoms of anxiety disorders (blushing, sweating, shaking, palpitations, etc)

Inderal, specifically, seems to be more effective than other beta-blockers, or newer beta-blockers, for anxiety...

Inderal does not typically help with the psychological symptoms of anxiety (racing thoughts, etc)...but, It can help stop the "cycle" of social anxiety if blushing, trembling, are contributing factors to your social anxiety
