want to try a different beta blocker for akathisia?


Recommended Posts

okay so this wednesday im due for my injection of flupenthixol 60mg. my gp is goin to give it. he gives this injection every 2 weeks. last time i saw him he prescribed me inderal for this restlessness i am experiencing. this is probably the 3rd time im trying it. last time i tried it was 4 years ago for akathisia. i was on the maximum dose and it did nothing. no side effects either. ive also tried metoprolol. didnt work. im pretty sure there are other beta blockers i can try. can someone please give me a name of another beta blocker i can mention to my gp so he can prescribe it?!?!?

plz read what this guy wrote as the last post http://www.crazyboards.org/forums/index.php/topic/39996-betablockers-for-akathisia/

There is no way to know if it wil help you or not unless you try it. Take the list to your pdoc and discuss it with him. I'm certain he has a lot more experience dealing with these meds than either you or I.

BTW, what was the max dose you took of propranolol?

i think it was 320mg!
