Hello everyone,

I would like some advice on beta blockers, I was recently prescribed with them for my anxiety, which since has been creeping up to become panic attacks. Will they work to prevent them if I take 40mg as directed from my GP, but before the anxiety hits? I used to take xanax and they worked well, I'm a bit apprehensive about beta blockers as I've never used them before. They seem to work slower on me, maybe because I've only taken 10mg.  The fact that they lower the blood pressure and the heart rate is what concerns me, I'm worried I might take too much.

Thank you
