If someone is taking inderal 10 mg twice a day how should they taper off taking 10 mg propanol one time a day or taking 5 mg propanol twice a day

Propranolol (Inderal) should always be reduced gradually to avoid rebound anxiety or rise in heart rate. The taper plan depends on the reason it was prescribed and your current health. Commonly, doctors reduce it slowly — for example, by shifting from 10 mg twice daily to 10 mg once daily for a week, then 5 mg once or twice daily — but the exact schedule must be individualized. Please discuss this with your prescribing doctor before making any change, as tapering too fast can cause palpitations or dizziness.

Reduce the tab from twice a day to once daily for about a week or so. If it’s ok can stop it completely.
