Hi
I have been taking beta blockers for the past 2 years, roughly once a week (before a meeting etc), but found they gave me dry eyes so saw the doc yesterday and asked if there was anything similar to Beta Blockers that I could try instead. He's prescribed Diazepam 2mg to take as and when required.
With the beta blockers I would take them 1 hour before a meeting as that is how long they would take to effect me but can anyone please advise how long Diazepam takes to work? Is it like within 5 mins or should I give it an hour like the beta blockers? And also does Diazepam help control palpitations and a racing heart beat? As the beta blockers managed to control this.
Any advice would be really appreciated - thank you!!
