Im an internist and an emergency room doctor. Inderal shouldnt be taken
without discussing it with your doctor. A low dose (10 to 20 mg) is typically
safe but people can have idiosyncratic reactions to it.It will lower the
blood pressure. I once took a low dose and felt a little dizzy on stage. I
knew what was happening but was suprised by the effect of the drug. beta
blckers can cause some bronchospasm, slow the heart rateand interact with
other medications. A low dose is againtypially safe but shouldnt be taken
lightly like an aspirin or tylenol..
