It’s a beta blocker and will slow down your heart rate. Hope it helps.

Hi thanks15,

Unfortunately I can’t tolerate SSRIs or SNRIs for my anxiety, so I take an off-label antipsychotic and propranolol. For me, the propranolol is very subtle and it helps with some of the physical symptoms of anxiety, but not the anxious thoughts. Good luck with it!
