"difficult to rate this drug as initially it had a dramatic positive effect - if i took enough, 40 to 120 mg. or more (i only used it when required i.e. when anxiety/panic/feelings of paranoia became a problem.)  but after some years of this occasional use the drug has become completely non-effective. reading new packet inserts, i note that propranolol is no longer described as a treatment for anxiety. so has the formula been changed? at my last visit to a doctor i was told that nothing much else was available to prescribe aside from citilapram, propranolol ...and he prescribed 2 mg diazepam, which astonished me. i stopped using that (in higher dose) years ago, and don&#039;t see it as any sort of answer. i intend to see another doctor."
