> Why do you recommend Inderal so furiously? Isn't Beta blockers induce depression? Years apart, I had a tachycardia problem and my doc prescribed Inderal 40 mg twice a day for me. It alone made me depressed and I had to resort on an antidepressant. Beta blockers in general and Inderal in particular are notorious for inducing depression. In susceptible individuals don't recommend it please. For a hypomanic patient, it is better to be on either new generation antipsychotics or klonopin like drugs.

>Hi PLS,
I agree with shadows here. Donna is stuck with some very average doctors. She can't get benzos for daily use, worse still, the AP that they have prescibed to her is Fluanxol. Her best bet is a beta blocker which has been prescribed for her. Beta blockers may not help depression, but I think her current worst problem is something close to constant panic.
Cheers,
Panda.
