Don’t stop Inderal suddenly, and not if you have asthma

Never stop taking Inderal on your own: the UK product information for Inderal (Atnahs) says abrupt withdrawal of beta-blockers is to be avoided, and the dose should be withdrawn gradually over 7 to 14 days. The NHS says stopping suddenly may make your health problem worse, and your doctor will usually reduce your dose gradually over 1 to 2 weeks.

Asthma: the UK label says Inderal must not be used if there is a history of bronchial asthma or bronchospasm, and the UK patient leaflet says if you have ever had asthma or wheezing, do not take it.

Diabetes: the UK label says Inderal may block or modify the warning signs of low blood sugar, especially a fast heartbeat, and the NHS says it may make the warning signs of low blood sugar more difficult to recognise.

What Inderal is

Inderal (propranolol hydrochloride, 10 mg or 40 mg tablets) is a beta-blocker used for high blood pressure, angina, some abnormal heart rhythms, protecting the heart after a heart attack, preventing migraine, essential tremor and the physical symptoms of anxiety, according to the UK product information for Inderal (Atnahs). We dispense it on prescription.

Inderal 10mg is DRAP reg. 000531 (DRAP registry entry) and Inderal 40mg is DRAP reg. 000538; DRAP records both as film-coated tablets of propranolol hydrochloride in packs of 50.
Made in Pakistan by Lucky Core Industries (LCI): LCI’s own product listing lists Inderal 10mg and 40mg in packs of 50 tablets.
We found no Pakistani leaflet for Inderal online, so no Pakistani document we could find states its uses or condition of sale. Dispensing it on prescription is our own policy, and the clinical facts on this page come from UK sources, each named where it is used.
DRAP controls Inderal’s price: its price index sets Rs 173.81 for 50 tablets of 10 mg and Rs 316.00 for 50 tablets of 40 mg, effective 27 July 2026.

What is in each tablet

One active ingredient, propranolol hydrochloride, from DRAP’s registry and the carton.

Active ingredient in each Inderal strength, with DRAP registration
Tablet	Ingredient	Amount per tablet
Inderal 10mg (DRAP reg. 000531)	Ingredient: Propranolol hydrochloride	Amount per tablet: 10 mg
Inderal 40mg (DRAP reg. 000538)	Ingredient: Propranolol hydrochloride	Amount per tablet: 40 mg

DRAP’s record for the 40 mg tablet leaves its label-claim line blank; its composition table gives propranolol hydrochloride 40 mg, as the carton does.

The UK patient leaflet says Inderal contains lactose.

What it is used for

Mostly the heart and blood pressure, but not only. The UK product information for Inderal (Atnahs) lists eleven uses.

Uses of propranolol, by source
Source	Uses
UK, Inderal	High blood pressure; angina; long-term protection against another heart attack after recovery from one; most forms of abnormal heart rhythm; preventing migraine; essential tremor; situational and generalised anxiety, particularly its physical symptoms; preventing bleeding from swollen veins in the gullet (oesophageal varices) in people with high blood pressure in the liver; alongside other treatment for an overactive thyroid (thyrotoxicosis); hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (a thickened heart muscle); and phaeochromocytoma, around surgery, with an alpha-blocker.
NHS	Heart problems, some of the symptoms of anxiety, and preventing migraines; usually prescribed for high blood pressure and other heart problems.

How to take it

The dose depends on why you take it: the UK product information for Inderal (Atnahs) gives different regimens for each use, so the choice belongs to your prescriber. Take it as they direct.

First dose: the NHS says your first dose of propranolol may make you feel dizzy, so take it at bedtime; after that, if you don’t feel dizzy, you can take it in the morning.
How long: the NHS says for anxiety you’ll usually take propranolol for a short time, to help with your physical symptoms. The UK label says people taking it for anxiety should be reviewed after 6 to 12 months.
Stopping: only on your doctor’s advice and gradually, as the notice above says. The NHS says that if you stop suddenly after taking it for a long time, you may get an irregular heart rate, sweating and shaking.
Before an operation, tell the doctor you take it: the UK label says that if beta-blocker treatment is to be stopped before surgery, it should be stopped at least 24 hours beforehand.

Who should not take it, or should ask a doctor first

From the UK product information for Inderal (Atnahs) unless another source is named.

Must not take it: anyone with a history of asthma or bronchospasm (wheezing from narrowed airways).
Must not take it: anyone with a slow heartbeat, heart block (second or third degree), sick sinus syndrome, low blood pressure, uncontrolled heart failure, cardiogenic shock or Prinzmetal’s angina.
Must not take it: anyone prone to low blood sugar, for example after prolonged fasting; and anyone with severe circulation problems in the limbs, metabolic acidosis or an untreated phaeochromocytoma.
Must not take it: anyone allergic to propranolol.
Ask first: the NHS says tell your doctor before starting if you have lung disease or asthma, or diabetes.
Overactive thyroid: the UK label says propranolol may mask its signs.
Severe allergies: the UK label says people on beta-blockers who have a severe allergic reaction may not respond to the usual doses of adrenaline used to treat it.

Other medicines

Tell your doctor and our pharmacist about everything you take, especially other heart and blood pressure medicines.

Clonidine	What the source says: Beta-blockers may make the rebound high blood pressure after stopping clonidine worse; if both are taken, the beta-blocker should be withdrawn several days before clonidine is stopped.	Source: UK, 4.5
Insulin and other diabetes medicines	What the source says: Propranolol may make the warning signs of low blood sugar harder to recognise, and the UK label says it may prolong the low-sugar response to insulin.	Source: NHS; UK, 4.4
Heart-rhythm medicines such as amiodarone, disopyramide, digoxin or flecainide	What the source says: Listed as interacting; the UK label says some can add to propranolol’s effects on the heart’s conduction and pumping.	Source: NHS; UK, 4.5
Asthma and COPD medicines	What the source says: Listed by the NHS as medicines to check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking with propranolol.	Source: NHS

Ergotamine and related migraine medicines; rizatriptan	What the source says: Ergotamine: caution, because of reports of narrowed blood vessels. Rizatriptan: a lower rizatriptan dose has been recommended when both are used.	Source: UK, 4.5

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

The UK label and the NHS word this differently, so both are shown. Ask your doctor before taking it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Propranolol in pregnancy and breastfeeding, by source
Who	What the sources say
Pregnancy	UK label: should not be given during pregnancy unless its use is essential; there is no evidence of birth defects, but beta-blockers reduce blood flow to the placenta, which may result in the baby’s death in the womb, or early or premature delivery. NHS: you can take propranolol during pregnancy, though it can sometimes affect your baby’s growth.
Breastfeeding	UK label: breastfeeding is not recommended. NHS: if your baby is healthy, it’s OK to take propranolol while breastfeeding; always check with a pharmacist or doctor first.

Side effects

Feeling tired or dizzy, cold hands or feet, and trouble sleeping are the main ones, according to the NHS.

Side effects of propranolol, by source
Source	Side effects
UK patient leaflet (common)	Disturbed sleep and nightmares; tiredness.
NHS	Difficulty sleeping or nightmares; feeling tired, dizzy or weak.
UK label (rare, serious)	Bronchospasm in people with asthma or a history of asthma, sometimes fatal.

Driving: the UK label says Inderal has no or negligible influence on driving, but dizziness or tiredness may occasionally occur. The NHS says that if propranolol makes you dizzy, don’t drive, ride a bike or use machinery.

Overdose: the UK label says propranolol is known to cause severe toxicity in overdose. If someone has taken too much, get urgent medical help.

Checking your pack is genuine

As of 28 October 2026, a search of DRAP’s website found no alert, recall or rapid alert naming Inderal.

Check that the batch number on the carton matches the batch number on the blister inside, and that the pack is sealed.
LCI’s current carton reads Inderal, propranolol HCl, 50 tablets, and names Lucky Core Industries Limited as the manufacturer. If a pack looks different from your last one, ask our pharmacist before taking it.

We buy only from authorised distributors, and check the batch and expiry on every item before it is packed.

Frequently asked questions

What is Inderal 10mg used for?

Inderal is propranolol, a beta-blocker. The UK product information lists high blood pressure, angina, abnormal heart rhythms, protecting the heart after a heart attack, preventing migraine, essential tremor and the physical symptoms of anxiety, among other uses. Your doctor chooses the strength and dose for your condition.

Is Inderal a sleeping pill?

No. Inderal is a beta-blocker, not a sleeping pill or a sedative. The NHS says propranolol can help with the physical symptoms of anxiety, like sweating and shaking, and stops your heart beating too fast. Difficulty sleeping and nightmares are among its side effects, according to the NHS.

Can I stop taking Inderal suddenly?

No. The UK product information says abrupt withdrawal is to be avoided and the dose should be reduced gradually over 7 to 14 days. Ask your doctor before stopping.

Can people with asthma take Inderal?

No. The UK product information says Inderal must not be used if there is a history of bronchial asthma or bronchospasm.

Do you need a prescription to buy Inderal?

We dispense Inderal on prescription. We found no Pakistani leaflet online that states its condition of sale, so this is our own policy; in the UK, the NHS says propranolol is only available on prescription.

DRAP publishes no definition of this verification flag, so we can’t tell you what it means. We searched DRAP’s website for “Inderal” and “propranolol” on 28 October 2026 and found no alert naming Inderal or propranolol. When we tested it, the search did not find a word that appears only inside an alert’s attached PDF, so an alert that names a product only in its PDF may not show up. DRAP describes its registered products index as a provisional list that “cannot be used as a reference for any purpose”. Checked against the registry on 28 October 2026.
