An Indispensible Parameters of Propranolol Include Objectives, Mechanism of Action, Administration, Adverse Effects, Contra Indications, Toxicity and Health Care Outcomes
Abstract
Propanolol can be used to prevent acute ischemia attacks, treat migraines, treat restless legs syndrome, and reduce the sympathetic response in angina and tachyarrhythmias. When lowering a patient's heart rate and contractility is the intended outcome, propranolol can be administered in practically every situation. Propranolol is also used off-label in a number of other situations. For example, it is used to treat performance anxiety, a kind of social phobia, a mental illness characterized by flushing, sweating, and tachycardia due to the sympathetic nervous system being activated. The indications, dosage, contraindications, mechanism, and management of propranolol therapy by the multidisciplinary healthcare team are explained in this activity.
