Propranolol – 50 tb/20 mg – Teva – expires 10/2035

Propranolol belongs to the class of medications called beta-blockers. It is used to treat high blood pressure. It is also used to prevent angina (chest pain), to manage certain heart conditions, and to treat certain types of abnormal heart rhythms. Propranolol works by relaxing blood vessels and reducing the demands on the heart.

Propranolol is also used for the prevention of migraines. It is also used, in combination with other medications, to manage the symptoms caused by pheochromocytoma (a tumour of the adrenal glands).

The recommended adult dose of propranolol varies widely according to the condition being treated and circumstances of the person taking the medication. Propranolol may be taken with or without food. Do not stop taking this medication suddenly unless you have talked with your doctor first.
