    Beta Blockers with herbal tablets

    Can anyone advise ? Can I take herbal tablets containing Valarian and Passionflower with Beta Blockers ?
    Can you take sleeping tablets such as Nytol with Beta Blockers ?
    Thanks

    Hi guys

    My understanding is that you have to be VERY careful. I take propanalol and both Tesco and Sainsbury's night time aid containing herbal incredients advise AGAINST use together.

    I did try Nytol and awoke after only 2 hours with a major panic attack.

    Be very careful and seek advise from either your GP or the pharmacist.

    It's very individual. I was recommended Nytol (not the herbal ones) by my psychiatrist and was on loads of different medications including beta blockers. They work for me but not for everyone.
