propanolol can lower blood pressure so if a person already has low blood pressure it could be an issue

sounds promising. My HWP gets dyskinesia frequently and it’s such a nuisance. I ll ask our Neuro what he thinks on next visit. He takes meds for High BP so might be helpful for him.

Thanks for posting.

propranalol helps with my tremors better than sinamet.

Years before the PD Dx I had an arm tremor. Propranolol was the first medication tried. I don't remember how it affected my tremor. All I remember is it made me too tired to function.
