Hello, Can anyone help ? I have just been prescribed beta blockers (the lowest dose) for an extreme fear of flying. I have never taken these before. Does anyone think these will be effective ? And can I take these with a herbal remedy like Serdyn (Valerian,Passion Flower ) ?
Thanks :)
hi am bernadette i take beta blockers 1 every day 25mg they r great you dont feel your heart pounding you will be fine with them i also take resue remedy when i need to it is safe to do
thanks for your reply bernadette. I have been told that the 10mg dose of beta blockers won't really do anything, especailly on a flight ( where I will be extemely anxious). Can anyone advise on the right dose to take ? Thanks
Discuss dose with the person who prescribed them. Do not change doses unsupervised.
I was prescribed 25mg Atenolol when first diagnosed in an anxiety state by a neurologist.
We are talking low doses but it's still better to talk to the prescriber in my opinion.
Cheers,
Trev

Is it worth ringing this advice line? Remember they are only open Monday to Friday though!

"Supposing a tree fell down, Pooh, when we were underneath it?" said Piglet.
"Supposing it didn't," said Pooh after careful thought.
Thanks for your advice. I will certainly try the tablets advice line. :D
