Has anyone ever vaped while on propanolol?

So I’m starting propanolol tomorrow, I know Im too young but I recently switched to an electronic cigarette to quit normal tobacco cigarettes. Yes I know, I’m 16 and I’m too young for all that crap, but I got peer-pressured into it I guess and got manipulated. Anyways, I am really horrified and anxious that the nicotine in the cigarette or all the chemicals will badly combine with propanol and somehow lead to horrific physical symptoms in the heart or anything that would cause me to go to the ER. Or even combine to cause something fatal.. please help! Is it ok to still vape, will it do any harm to me or damage that would lead to an ER trip or death? Anxiety physical symptoms scare me enough and convince me enough that I am dying.

Hi,

Well done for switching, I too started smoking at a young age and only recently (6 weeks ago) started vaping.

Iv been on propanolo when I was a smoker, I can only say from my own experience that there was no difference for me, I actually didn't like the effect it had and decided not to take it anymore.

I use rescue remedy now and try a more holistic approach to anxiety, iv had this for years and have tried various things, best thing for your Dr to do for you and your self is the correct talking therapy,CBT etc. Don't feel pressured into taking tablets, they just skim over the issues.

Best of luck

Thank you so much, what effects did it have on you that caused to stop taking them? If you don’t mind me asking. I am waiting for my CBT appointment, they haven’t called me yet.

No I don't mind ask away 🙂

Honestly it made my anxiety hieghten, If i took one tablet every now and again it was ok like it helped short term,if I took the required 3 a day I was a mess and the next day felt terrible if I didn't take them. That's just me and my experience from it.

Talking about my experience, if you can ask a family member to ring them up for you and ask about your CBT appointment, it must be distressing just waiting for this call and it should be done first thing so your not worried all day. Honestly they won't think anything if someone rings on your behalf then you know where you are at and can organise your day etc.
