Proxivol (propranolol hydrochloride) is a non-selective beta-adrenergic antagonist (beta-blocker) used to manage a variety of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular conditions. It is commonly prescribed for hypertension, angina pectoris, arrhythmias, and for the prevention of migraine headaches. Proxivol helps to lower blood pressure and reduce heart workload by blocking the effects of adrenaline on beta receptors.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Proxivol Work?

Propranolol works by blocking beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors, leading to decreased heart rate, reduced myocardial contractility, and lowered blood pressure. This action also reduces the secretion of renin from the kidneys, which helps to further decrease blood pressure. By inhibiting the effects of adrenaline, Proxivol can also help prevent migraines and reduce symptoms of anxiety.

Common Dosages

  • Tablets: Common strengths include 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg, 60 mg, and 80 mg.
  • Injectable solution: 1 mg/mL.

Typical Dosing

  • For hypertension: The usual starting dose is 40 mg taken twice daily, which may be adjusted based on response.
  • For migraine prevention: A typical dose is 80 mg taken daily, divided into two or more doses.
  • For anxiety: The dosage may vary, typically starting at 40 mg before a stressful event.

Who Shouldn't Take Proxivol?

  • Known hypersensitivity to propranolol or any components of the formulation.
  • Severe asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • Bradycardia (slow heart rate) or severe hypotension (low blood pressure).
  • Cardiogenic shock or uncompensated heart failure.


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Instruct patients to take Proxivol exactly as prescribed and to not discontinue the medication abruptly without consulting their healthcare provider, as this may lead to rebound hypertension or worsening angina.
  • Monitor for side effects, especially signs of bradycardia, hypotension, or respiratory issues in patients with underlying lung conditions.
  • Advise patients to be cautious when driving or operating machinery until they know how Proxivol affects them.


Side Effects of Proxivol

Risks and Warnings of Proxivol

  • Respiratory Effects: Patients with a history of asthma or COPD should use Proxivol with caution due to the potential for bronchoconstriction.
  • Cardiovascular Monitoring: Regular monitoring of heart rate and blood pressure is essential, especially during the initial phase of treatment or after dosage adjustments.


Interactions with Proxivol

Common Drug Interactions

  • Calcium Channel Blockers: Concurrent use with non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers (e.g., verapamil) may lead to additive effects on heart rate and blood pressure.
  • Antidiabetic Agents: Proxivol can mask the symptoms of hypoglycemia, requiring careful monitoring in patients with diabetes.

Alternatives to Proxivol

  • Other Beta-Blockers: Such as atenolol or metoprolol may be considered based on the patient's specific needs and tolerability.
  • Antihypertensives: Other classes of antihypertensive medications, such as ACE inhibitors or diuretics, may also be used for blood pressure management.
