My blood pressure was 176/106 this morning currently taking 40 mg of propranolol twice a day. Is this medication specifically prescribed for high blood pressure? I also suffer from Graves disease and take 125 mcgr of Levoxyl per day since my thyroid was taken with I-131 iodine back in 2003
Hello, Its given for both blood pressure and to control the symptoms cause by graves disease. However, one is having only blood pressure problem then this is not prescribed as it's not a very good antihypertensive. So your blood pressure is still elevated then needs to add other medicine like Tab Amlodipine 5 mg once a day. Have low salt diet and regular exercise.
