You're unlikely to see any improvement for some time yet, except possibly from a placebo response. ADs are not fast acting meds. Nick.
I think the propranalol might actually be working because i seem to be better for the morning after i take 40mg but then get a bit worse towards the afternoon. Im wondering if i should be taking more than just the 1 dose in the morning?
Propranolol has only a short half-life, some 4-5 hours, so immediate release formulations will typically run out of steam within 10 hours. It is usually taken in 2-3 divided doses. Extended/sustained/slow-release formulations are effective for about 24 hours.
