Re: chronic headahe worried about low blood pressure
I was given 80mg Propranolol for high BP and migraines and it does lower bp, which is probably why your doctor suggested half the dose to allow yours to raise a bit more. She's right about low bp being better than high, although too low can sometimes also cause problems. I took propranolol for some years before changing over to another beta blocker called bisoprolol, but although this seems to have fewer side effects, it doesn't seem to control my BP like the propranolol did.
See how you get on with the 40mg anyway, it might just make all the difference to your bp and to how you feel in general. Where you given Propranolol because of the headaches?
ISB ☺
