Hypertension (high blood pressure), angina (chest pain), cardiac arrhythmias, prevention of migraine, essential tremor, anxiety symptoms (performance anxiety), prevention of bleeding from oesophageal varices, adjunct in hyperthyroidism/thyrotoxicosis
Most side effects of Betacap are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
Take as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet with water at the same time each day; may be taken with or without food (take consistently). Do not stop suddenly without medical advice; dose is usually tapered.
Propranolol is a non-selective beta-adrenergic blocker. It reduces heart rate and cardiac output and decreases renin release from kidneys, thereby lowering blood pressure and reducing workload on the heart. It also stabilizes electrical activity of the heart and helps prevent migraine.
Do not use in asthma/COPD with bronchospasm, severe bradycardia, heart block, cardiogenic shock or uncontrolled heart failure unless advised by a specialist. May mask symptoms of hypoglycaemia in diabetics; monitor blood sugar. Use caution in peripheral vascular disease, depression, thyroid disorders and in those prone to bronchospasm. Do not stop abruptly as it may worsen angina or precipitate arrhythmias. Inform doctor before surgery/anaesthesia.
If you miss a dose of Betacap 20 Tablet, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
An overdose of this medicine can cause a dangerously slow heartbeat, a severe fall in blood pressure, wheezing and fits. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
