Description

Angina (chest pain caused by the heart), arrhythmia, heart attack, hypertension (high blood pressure), anxiety, tremors, glaucoma, heart failure, migraine, migraine prevention, and pheochromocytoma are among the conditions that propranolol is used to treat.
The way propranolol functions
One of the beta blockers found in propranolol is propranolol. It functions by altering how the body reacts to nerve signals, particularly in the heart. It lowers your heart rate and facilitates the heart’s ability to circulate blood throughout your body. This stops a heart attack, stabilizes blood pressure, and avoids arrhythmia. Additionally, it improves blood flow by widening the body’s blood vessels, which helps to prevent migraines and angina. Experts believe that propranolol helps stop the nerve impulses to the muscles that cause tremors, though the precise mechanism by which it inhibits tremors is unknown. Propranolol aids in blocking the effects of the brain-produced chemical messengers noradrenaline and adrenaline, which raise your heart rate and cause anxiety. In this sense, it reduces anxiety. Propranolol may be used to treat pheochromocytoma in order to prevent the activity of high-adrenaline hormones and reduce the risk of dangerously elevated blood pressure during tumor removal surgery.
