I appreciate there are similar threads, so I apologize for clogging up the forum, however I was looking for advice from people in a similar situation to me.

I was prescribed 80mg slow release Propranolol around 10 weeks ago after my first full-blown panic attack. A few weeks later I spoke to my doctor about stopping the medication when I felt confident enough and he said I could stop them as he doesn't believe there's anything wrong with my heart (I've had an ECG and my blood pressure appears to be fine. I could do with losing a few stone, but I've not been diagnosed with anything like diabetes). However, I've heard that most people are weaned off them slowly as opposed to stopping abruptly.

I don't want to second guess the doctor, but has anybody else had experience of going cold turkey with slow-release Propranolol? I'm not sure whether to try it or to go back and see him or another doctor.

Thanks.
