Is There Any Adverse Effects If Pot Is Smoked While Being On Low Dose Propranolol For Stress?
hi I was prescribed very low dose propranolol 10 mg once a day at bedtime. Will there be any adverse effects if I smoke pot while on this medication. The propranolol was prescribed by my doctor for a one time high blood pressure reading by gis staff yesterday. I had it read twice today and both times it was normal to low. I told him I believed it to be stress related because I had just come from dealing with a highly emotional personal situation.
Pot is stimulant and it could lead to anxiety symptoms which increase heart rate. Propranolol will help to control the heart rate and other anxiety symptoms. thus, there is nothing harm of taking low dose propranolol with pot.
Thanks
