What is Inderal La
Propranolol
The Generic name of this drug
Treatment Summary
Propranolol is a medication used to treat high blood pressure. It is a combination of two enantiomers, with the S(-)-enantiomer having 100 times the binding affinity for beta adrenergic receptors. Propranolol has been approved by the FDA since 1967 and is used to treat a number of other conditions.

Effectiveness
How Inderal La Affects Patients
Propranolol is a drug used to treat high blood pressure. It can be taken in one or two doses each day and its effects last long. If someone stops taking propranolol suddenly, they may experience chest pain or heart attacks.
How Inderal La works in the body
Propranolol blocks certain receptors in the body, resulting in decreased blood vessel growth and increased cell death. It also reduces the levels of hormones that regulate blood pressure.
When to interrupt dosage
The measure of Inderal La is contingent upon the identified affliction, including Catecholamines, Hypertensive illness and Hemangiomas. The amount of dosage is contingent upon the method of delivery (e.g. Solution - Oral or Capsule, extended release - Oral) as specified in the table below.

Common Inderal La Drug Interactions
Drug Name
Risk Level
Description
4-Bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine
Major
The therapeutic efficacy of 4-Bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine can be decreased when used in combination with Propranolol.
4-Methoxyamphetamine
Major
The therapeutic efficacy of 4-Methoxyamphetamine can be decreased when used in combination with Propranolol.
Abediterol
Major
Propranolol may decrease the bronchodilatory activities of Abediterol.
Adrafinil
Major
The therapeutic efficacy of Adrafinil can be decreased when used in combination with Propranolol.
Agrostis gigantea pollen
Major
The risk of a hypersensitivity reaction to Agrostis gigantea pollen is increased when it is combined with Propranolol.
Inderal La Toxicity & Overdose Risk
Signs of an overdose of propranolol include low blood pressure, seizures due to low blood sugar, restlessness, and difficulty sleeping. People with asthma may have difficulty breathing. To treat an overdose, medical professionals will monitor vital signs and mental status, and administer fluids to raise blood pressure, atropine to slow an irregular heartbeat, and drugs to open up the airways. If the patient does not respond to fluids, they may be given glucagon followed by drugs that increase the activity of certain hormones. Dialysis usually cannot remove propranolol from the body because it binds strongly to proteins.

Patient Q&A Section about inderal la
These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.
What does Inderal LA treat?
"INDICATIONS:
Propranolol HCl is indicated for the treatment of high blood pressure, angina pectoris, and hypertrophic subaortic stenosis. It is also indicated for the prevention of migraine headaches."
Answered by AI
Is propranolol ER the same as Inderal LA?
"HCL
Propanolol HCL ER is used to lower blood pressure and heart rate, making it easier for the heart to pump blood to the rest of the body. It can also be used to prevent migraine headaches. Propanolol HCL ER works by relaxing the blood vessels in the brain that cause migraines."
Answered by AI
What is difference between Inderal and Inderal LA?
"There was no significant difference in blood pressure levels between conventional propranolol and 'Inderal' LA, but the mean peak blood level of propranolol was lower with 'Inderal' LA and occurred later."
Answered by AI
What is Inderal LA 60 mg used for?
"This medication is a beta blocker that is used to treat high blood pressure, irregular heartbeats, shaking (tremors), and other conditions as determined by your doctor. It is used after a heart attack to improve survival rates. It is also effective in preventing migraine headaches and chest pain (angina)."
