Βeta-Blockers - How long to take them for?

Hi guys,

I was just wondering for how long you have been taking β-blockers if you have been treated with them? I've been taking mine for 2.5 years now and there is no end in sight. I was wondering whether it's normal to be just kept on them or whether you only take them for a set period of time. I know if won't "cure" migraines and all and if I stop taking them they probably gonna come back more frequently. But taking these meds must have some other physical implications for an otherwise healthy subject.

Ive just started taking Propranolol but dont know how long my Migraines will last. They started with the start of peri menopause so hopefully will end when i get through that.
