Hi everyone.

I've only been taking Propranolol for a couple of weeks now (one dose of 40mg) a day.... but next week due for a 24 hr ecg (palpatations) and I was told that i need to be completely off Propranolol 4 days before the ecg. Going to dr this afternoon to request some 10mg tablets.. so i can reduce gradually over the coming days.. ie. 30, 20, 10, 0 (sorry didnt really need to put that lol) anyway.. im wondering as i've only been on them a couple of weeks how you guys who take them think the best way forward to reduce them is.. bearing in mind I only have 6 days to get to 0
