Hi, etilazolam shouldn't be continued beyond two months.Its not advisable .Since,etizolam has been prescribed to you in combination with propranolol 20mg,discounting it abruptly may have some side effects,hence it's better to book an appointment with the doctor and report about your current concerns,improvement in anxiety symptoms.This will help the doctor to better understand your current health status and enable him to adjust the medications accordingly.

Probably not. I would recommend you to see your doctor again in a couple of weeks if your sleep issue is sorted. In this instance they may wish to consider switching to plain propranolol or even discontinuing it all together depending on your response.
If your sleep issues haven’t sorted out in a couple of weeks, then continue the tablets as prescribed and until your next review.
Hope this was helpful.
