I had a Holter test done back in February and everything seemed normal, but I'm still a bit worried. Would really appreciate your insight on this.

After some rest and medication, I felt a bit better, but my pulse didn't change. Now that I'm in Oman, I can't easily consult the same doctor.

I'm taking Inderal 40 mg since August 2019, and recently I've cut it down to 20 mg for the past month. My pulse rate seems fine now. I'm wondering how I can safely stop taking this medication. What steps should I follow to withdraw from it?
To withdraw from Inderal (Propranolol) 20 mg, it is important to gradually taper off the medication to avoid any potential withdrawal symptoms. You can start by reducing the dosage to 10 mg for a few weeks, and then further decrease it to 10 mg every other day for another few weeks. Finally, you can stop taking the medication completely. It is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance and monitoring during this process.
