HI Cloclo x I was put onto propanolol at the same dose you are and while i felt great as in the beats and adrenalin where calmer they made me feel tired and lethargic x I was refusing to get out of bed and not wanting to do anything, my doctor lower the dose and it seemed to shift a little x Maybe ask your gp if your dose maybe needs adjusting x Donver x

Hi, It amazes me that you are on such a high dosage. I took this several yrs ago. The dosage I can't remember but it was the dreams/nightmares that I got. Caring for my sick elderly mother, I needed what sleep I could get. This time around I was started on 10mg increasing 10mg x 2wks and told to take the nighttime dose mid/late afternoon, well before sleeping. The 10mg although it took several days to work, did. However, I had a lovely surprise that my son, living some 3000 miles away, was coming over. This was the reason my tremors literally went away and after he left came back. Uping to 20mg didn't help and on 30mg I started feeling nausea and bad balance. My gp wanted to increase it to 40mg saying they start patients at 40mg. I'm still looking for something I can take so I can socialize occasionally and for when the tremor gets so bad I can't do anything. The drs still swear about Propanolol, but even the name puts me off.
