Propranolol hydrochloride is a beta blocker. Beta blockers are used to treat several heart problems such as high blood pressure, or conditions that can cause an arrhythmia.
Propranolol has also shown efficacy as a situational anxiety treatment, helping to alleviate some of the physical symptoms of anxiety such as sweating or heart palpitations.
Propranolol (sometimes sold under brands such as Inderal or Angilol) is a beta blocker.
Beta blockers are a class of medications, typically prescribed for heart conditions that work by slowing down the heart by blocking the function of hormones like adrenaline, helping to regulate heart rate and function.
Propranolol blocks the action of the hormone adrenaline. In the context of situational anxiety, this can slow heartbeat and help relieve the physical symptoms of anxiety such as sweating, trembling and palpitations.
However, Propranolol does not treat anxiety or address the root cause. Addressing the root cause of anxiety will require a treatment plan consisting of therapy, medication and many other factors. Propranolol hydrochloride simply helps to relieve physical manifestations of anxiety.
Propranolol is suitable for situational anxiety (a temporary bout of anxiety triggered by a specific event e.g. Anxiousness about a presentation at work) but is not suitable for generalised anxiety (anxiety that is persistent, excessive and occurs without a specific trigger.)
Propranolol tablets and other beta blockers are mostly used to treat heart problems. This may include:
Propranolol Hydrochloride may be used to treat thyroid issues, situational anxiety and several other conditions. A full list of the conditions that Propranolol is licensed to treat can be found on the website for the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence.

Propranolol is also available as an “SR” or “Sustained Release” tablet, which allows the medication to be dispersed through the body over a longer period. Propranolol hydrochloride may also be given intravenously in a secondary care setting.

However, Propranolol does not address the psychological aspects of anxiety such as excessive fear or worry.
For this reason, propranolol can be useful for treating situational anxiety, but is less suitable for treating generalised anxiety.
