It's a beta blocker. It won't hurt your heart at all. Just lower your heart rate and bp maybe. Are you starting on a small dose?

I've been on them over 6years and was prescribed 80mg twice a day ( only take 1 a day tho ) ..... I've had no problems at all with these

Do beta blockers really help anxious people? I found them next to useless.
