    Hello! Its been awhile since you have posted in this discussion but I don't think you should really have a problem skipping a pill if as long as you don't go cold turkey on it. I take 20mg for my Afib/Anxiety but only before work and I only 4x a week so it should be no issue taking it on a sloppy schedule.

    propranolol isnt an anxiety drug and isnt psychoactive so you will have no withdrawal from it at all.

    all it does is reduce the adrenalin from your system which reduces your heart rate and blood pressure.

    I take it as and when I need it and it's good for what I need it for.
