Are there any long-term side effects of taking Betacap TR 40mg for several years, and is it safe to stop taking it or reduce the dose to twice a week?

Asked by Male, 32 · 15 hours ago

Taking Betacap TR (propranolol) long-term is generally safe, though some may experience mild effects like fatigue or cold hands. However, it is not safe to suddenly stop taking this medication or reduce your dose to twice a week on your own. Doing so can cause your heart rate and blood pressure to jump unexpectedly. If you feel it is time to reduce or stop your medication, please consult your doctor first, as they will help you safely and gradually taper off the dose to keep you feeling your best.
