Steps to get started:
Propranolol can sometimes be preferred because it’s a non-selective beta blocker, making it effective not just for blood pressure but also for anxiety, especially performance anxiety, and migraines. But, its non-selective action means it can affect the lungs, so it might not be the best choice for people with asthma or certain breathing issues.
Compared to metoprolol and atenolol, which are more cardioselective and better tolerated by asthma patients, propranolol may cause more side effects related to lung function. Clonidine, on the other hand, can treat anxiety and ADHD, but tends to be more sedating, which can be a negative side effect for some individuals.
| Medication | Class | Common Use | Key Difference |
| Propranolol | Beta blocker | Blood pressure, anxiety, migraines | Non-selective beta blocker; often used for performance anxiety |
| Metoprolol | Beta blocker | Blood pressure, heart conditions | Cardioselective; fewer side effects for asthma patients |
| Atenolol | Beta blocker | Hypertension, angina | Longer acting, less effective for anxiety |
| Clonidine | Alpha agonist | Anxiety, ADHD, and blood pressure | More sedating than propranolol |
