Propranolol LA is a beta blocker used to treat hypertension, angina, and other cardiovascular conditions.

Propranolol is the generic name of a medication better known by the brand name Inderal. The LA in its name indicates it is a Long-Acting formula, better known by the brand name Inderal LA. The most significant difference between these two tablets is the frequency of administration; regular tablets are taken 2 to 4 times per day, while long-acting tablets are taken just once per day.

Many patients prefer to buy Propranolol LA for its once-per-day convenience. If considering switching to the long-acting version from regular tablets, be aware that they are not interchangeable mg per mg---a doctor should be consulted for dosage. Also note that these tablets should be swallowed whole; individuals who have difficulty swallowing whole tablets should consider the regular tablets instead, as they can be crushed and mixed into food.

Conditions Treated with Propranolol LA

Propranolol LA has two main applications: lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on the heart. It is effective in a range of cardiovascular conditions and, because propranolol crosses the blood-brain barrier better than many other beta blockers, it also sees some use in other applications. Patients often buy Propranolol LA for:

• Hypertension
• Angina
• Atrial fibrillation
• Tachycardia
• Pheochromocytoma
• Essential tremor
• Migraines
• Anxiety

Treatment is almost always long-term; it takes about two weeks after starting treatment or adjusting dosage for full benefit to be realized. Treatment starts at low doses, gradually increased every two weeks after effects can be evaluated. If the medication has been taken for more than a few weeks treatment should not stop abruptly; though unlikely, sudden discontinuation can produce dangerous side effects. Dosage should be gradually reduced over several weeks.

In treating anxiety Propranolol LA may be used as-needed; note that it only alleviates physical symptoms in anxiety, such as trembling voice and sweating. It does not alleviate anxious thoughts.

Beta blockers are among the relatively few treatments effective at reducing the frequency and severity of migraines, and in this application the medication's ability to cross the blood-brain barrier is particularly important. Some people buy Propranolol LA for similar effects on cluster headaches, though it is not effective for everyone. In both types of headache improvements should be seen within two months of starting treatment; if no results are noticed by then, alternative treatments should be considered.

Precautions Before Use

Propranolol LA works by slowing the rate at which the heart beats and relaxing blood vessels. Any medical conditions or medications which also influence heart rate, circulation or blood pressure increases risk of experiencing complications. Propranolol LA is also known to interact with a wide range of other, unrelated medications, which may reduce the effectiveness of one or more of the medications involved. Always check with a doctor or pharmacist before adding, removing, or adjusting dosage of any medications during treatment.

Individuals who rely on epinephrine to manage major medical conditions, such as using EpiPens to prevent anaphylaxis, may not want to buy Propranolol LA; beta blockers can significantly reduce the effects of epinephrine.

There is a risk of harm to unborn or nursing babies if this or any beta blocker is taken while pregnant or breastfeeding.
