hi
welcome to health care magic,
the medication u r getting is right for vascular headache but u r experiencing
side effects of the same medication
pulse variations like either increased heart rate and low heart rate is due to
propanolol which belongs to the group of drugs .. beta blocker and it can
also cause variations of blood pressure
The doctor must have given u this drug to prevent further episodes of
headache as a prophylactic agent
YOU CAN BENEFIT WITH OTHER DRUGS LIKE FLUNARIZINE ,VALPROATE
kindly stop propanolol and consult your physician for a change to flunarizine
Flunarizine is usually started at a dose of 5mg once daily ,later slowly
increased to 20mg/day ,usually preferred at bed time
hope u find this helpful
