⚙️ How It Works

Propranolol blocks beta-adrenergic receptors, which:

• Slows heart rate

• Reduces heart muscle strain

• Lowers blood pressure

• Decreases the body’s response to adrenaline

⏱️ Typical Dosage

• Usually: 40 mg once daily (as Ciplar-LA is long-acting).

• The dose may be adjusted by your doctor based on your condition.

• Always take it at the same time each day, preferably after meals with water.

• Do not stop abruptly — stopping suddenly can worsen heart or blood pressure problems.
