Missing dose of betablockers for 2 days

[Jem1603]

Can anyone tell me if its ok to miss betablockers for a couple of days. My son has gone on a trip with Uni and has forgotten his betablockers - it will be 2/3 days.

I think he takes them 3 times a day - will he be ok?

Yes he will be ok. Beta blockers are for situational anxiety. My doctor told me I can take them as and when i need them for panic attacks.
