Safe tapering of Ciplar LA 20 after 2 y
"I have been taking Ciplar LA 20 (Propranolol 20mg sustained release) once daily for the past 2 years. It was initially prescribed by a doctor to manage my physical symptoms of anxiety. I am feeling much better now. Is it safe for me to continue taking this medication long-term, or should I stop it? If I need to stop, what is the safe and proper way to taper off Ciplar LA 20? I want to avoid any withdrawal symptoms or rebound anxiety."
