Question about dizziness and propranolol

Posted , 6 users are following.

Could someone please help me. I've been on the 10 mg of propranolol for eight or nine days now and I've noticed yesterday dizziness and today dizziness especially when I'm up moving around. I read the side effects dizziness is one of them is it just your body having to get used to the medication? I've also over the past three or four days when I am sleeping I have to get up and run to the bathroom with diarrhea and nausea during the day is this normal with this medication? Since I had that bad spending episode on Friday night I've been and anxious mess and worried that the propranolol is causing all kinds of problems. So if anyone can help I would really appreciate it, thank you

    Get your blood pressure checked ASAP. I was given propranol and the worst it did to me was drop my blood pressure to 80/50. I almost passed out. Check your blood pressure.

      I've been checking it, it was 100/73.

      I've read nausea, headache and diarrhea are side effects. I just thought the they would be the first day, but I guess they can come days after starting it. I've had these for abou 4-5 days and been in the 10mgs for 9 days. I will be chwcking with my doc tomorrow. Thanks for replying
