Equivalence dose propranolol - atenolol for anx?

Posted by Franz on June 12, 2012, at 20:05:13

Hello, many times beta blockers work for my anxiety.
I donīt take much e.g. 10 mg propranolol. I also tried atenolol in 25 mg doses but I would like to know if there is a better established equivalence.

Atenolol is interesting in that, at least in this rat study combined with alprazolam showed antidepressive effects:

I used to just take .5mg of xanax three times a day and feel great. Then added at urging of doc an SSRI and down the tubes it went. I think I will up my dose of xanax again and down the valium even more. Phillipa
