Does anyone take propranolol and smoke weed? I’m on 10mg by mouth 3x daily for essential tremors. Curious if anyone smokes while on this and if so any side effects you noticed ?

I used to take propranalol and smoked weed with no adverse effects, but that is my individual experience and others might have a different reaction given that there are cautions out there about mixing the 2.

It really depends on the individual. I don’t smoke a lot and take a couple of hits before bed each day. It’s common for my resting heart rate to race up to 130 BPM after smoking. I think that is the very concern.

Your doctor should have a full understanding of your lifestyle before prescribing medications so they understand your individual risk factors. Propralolol can have some potentially serious side effects.

We can tell you our personal experiences here in the forum, but it isn’t medical advice. Your doctor should to be fully informed so the best decisions can be made in managing your condition.

I wish you well, my friend. We all (particularly us older guys) all have these types of issues to deal with. It’s definitely no fun. I went to the ER for a burst cyst near my kidney this past weekend. They found a 5 cm tumor on my kidney when they did the CT scan. Scary.

Thanks, @OGIncognito. I haven’t gotten a follow up appt for testing yet, but from what I understand, this small of a tumor is very treatable with an 81% survival rate and it is ~80% probability that the tumor might be benign.

Best wishes to you Growmie!!! Hope all comes out well. I had what was thought to be a regular polyp in my colon but turned out to be adenomatous type. I go every 3yrs for screening now. Definitely a scary situation :frowning_with_open_mouth:.
