Mixing
For best safety practice, don't mix this drug with other depressants.
Why: respiratory depression. PsychonautWiki says:
- “Respiratory depression (also known as hypoventilation) can be described as a reduced urge to breathe that can be fatal depending on its intensity.” (PsychonautWiki, Respiratory depression, revision 150612)
- “... otherwise safe dosages of these compounds can become fatal when combined with even small amounts of other classes of depressant. For example, benzodiazepines combined with opioids are an extremely common cause of fatal respiratory depression. It is therefore strongly discouraged to combine these depressants at any dosage range.” (PsychonautWiki, Respiratory depression, revision 150612)
- “The most common cause of substance-related deaths is the combination of depressants (such as opiates, benzodiazepines, or alcohol) with other depressants.” (PsychonautWiki, Responsible drug use, revision 168206)
- “This combination potentiates the muscle relaxation, amnesia, sedation, and respiratory depression caused by one another. At higher doses, it can lead to a sudden, unexpected loss of consciousness along with a dangerous amount of depressed respiration.” (PsychonautWiki, dangerous interactions table, "Depressants" row, revision 156847)

Effects
Overview
Is a nonselective beta blocker. It is used in medication for high blood pressure, anxiety, and tremors. Also fun fact, it was the first successful beta-blocker developed. TS
Propranolol is a medication of the beta blocker class. It is used to treat high blood pressure, some types of irregular heart rate, thyrotoxicosis, capillary hemangiomas, akathisia, performance anxiety, and essential tremors, as well as to prevent migraine headaches, and to prevent further heart problems in those with angina or previous heart attacks. It can be taken orally, rectally, or by intravenous injection. The formulation that is taken orally comes in short-acting and long-acting versions. Propranolol appears in the blood after 30 minutes and has a maximum effect between 60 and 90 minutes when taken orally.[1–8] WP
Common side effects include nausea, abdominal pain, and constipation. It may worsen the symptoms of asthma. Propranolol may cause harmful effects for the fetus if taken during pregnancy; however, its use during breastfeeding is generally considered to be safe. It is a non-selective beta blocker which works by blocking β-adrenergic receptors.[3]
Propranolol was patented in 1962 and approved for medical use in 1964. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. Propranolol is available as a generic medication. In 2023, it was the 69th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 9 million prescriptions.[3]
History
History
Scottish scientist James W. Black developed propranolol in the 1960s. It was the first beta blocker effectively used in the treatment of coronary artery disease and hypertension. Black received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988 for this discovery. Propranolol is on the WHO Model list of essential medicines.[2]
Newer, more cardio-selective beta blockers (such as bisoprolol, nebivolol, carvedilol, or metoprolol) are used preferentially in the treatment of hypertension.[16] WP
Legal status
Performance enhancement
In a 1987 study by the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians, it was reported that 27% of interviewed members said they used beta blockers such as propranolol for musical performances. For about 10 to 16% of performers, their degree of stage fright is considered pathological. Propranolol is used by musicians, actors, and public speakers for its ability to treat anxiety symptoms activated by the sympathetic nervous system. It has also been used as a performance-enhancing drug in sports where high accuracy is required, including archery, shooting, golf, and snooker. In the 2008 Summer Olympics, 50-metre pistol silver medalist and 10-metre air pistol bronze medalist Kim Jong-su tested positive for propranolol and was stripped of his medals.[18–22] WP
Brand names
Propranolol was first marketed under the brand name Inderal, manufactured by ICI Pharmaceuticals (now AstraZeneca), in 1965. "Inderal" is a quasi-anagram of "Alderlin", the trade name of pronethalol (which propranolol replaced); both names are an homage to Alderley Park, the ICI headquarters where the drugs were first developed.[23] WP
Propranolol is also sold under the brand names Avlocardyl, Deralin, Dociton, Hemangeol, Inderalici, InnoPran XL, Indoblok, Sumial, Anaprilin, and Bedranol SR (Sandoz). In India, it is sold under brand names such as Ciplar and Ciplar LA by Cipla.[24] WP
Pharmacology
Pharmacodynamics
Propranolol is classified as a competitive non-cardioselective sympatholytic beta blocker that crosses the blood–brain barrier. It is lipid soluble and also has sodium channel-blocking effects. Propranolol is a non-selective β-adrenergic receptor antagonist, or beta blocker; that is, it blocks the action of epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline) at both β₁- and β₂-adrenergic receptors. It has little intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, but has strong membrane stabilizing activity (only at high blood concentrations, e.g. overdose). Propranolol can cross the blood–brain barrier and exert effects in the central nervous system in addition to its peripheral activity.[45]
In addition to blockade of adrenergic receptors, propranolol has very weak inhibitory effects on the norepinephrine transporter and/or weakly stimulates norepinephrine release (i.e., the concentration of norepinephrine is increased in the synapse). Since propranolol blocks β-adrenoceptors, the increase in synaptic norepinephrine only results in α-adrenoceptor activation, with the α₁-adrenoceptor being particularly important for effects observed in animal models. Therefore, it can be looked upon as a weak indirect α₁-adrenoceptor agonist in addition to potent β-adrenoceptor antagonist. In addition to its effects on the adrenergic system, there is evidence that indicates that propranolol may act as a relatively weak antagonist of certain serotonin receptors, namely the 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, and 5-HT2B receptors. The latter may be involved in the effectiveness of propranolol in the treatment of migraine at high doses. (–)-Propranolol is not a silent antagonist of the serotonin 5-HT1A receptor but is instead a very weak partial agonist of the receptor.[27]
Both enantiomers of propranolol have a local anesthetic (topical) effect, which is normally mediated by blockade of voltage-gated sodium channels. Studies have demonstrated propranolol's ability to block cardiac, neuronal, and skeletal voltage-gated sodium channels, accounting for its known membrane stabilizing effect and antiarrhythmic and other central nervous system effects.[52]
Mechanism of action
Propranolol is a non-selective beta receptor antagonist. This means that it does not have preference to β₁ or β₂ receptors. It competes with sympathomimetic neurotransmitters for binding to receptors, which inhibits sympathetic stimulation of the heart. Blockage of neurotransmitter binding to β₁ receptors on cardiac myocytes inhibits activation of adenylate cyclase, which in turn inhibits cAMP synthesis leading to reduced Protein kinase A (PKA) activation. This results in less calcium influx to cardiac myocytes through voltage-gated L-type calcium channels, meaning there is a decreased sympathetic effect on cardiac cells, resulting in antihypertensive effects including reduced heart rate and lower arterial blood pressure. Blocking neurotransmitter activity at β₂ receptors in vascular smooth muscle cells causes vasoconstriction, leading to hypertension.[45]
Absorption
Propranolol is rapidly and completely absorbed, with peak plasma levels achieved about 2 hours (range 1–3 hours) after ingestion. Its oral bioavailability is approximately 25%. Despite complete absorption, propranolol has a variable bioavailability due to extensive first-pass metabolism. Hepatic impairment therefore increases its bioavailability. Therapeutic plasma concentrations are typically between 0.02 and 0.3 mg/L. Toxicity has been reported at concentrations of 1 mg/L and above, with coma or death associated with concentrations of 4 to 10 mg/L and above. Coadministration with food appears to enhance bioavailability but does not hasten its time to peak levels. Propranolol can be absorbed along the whole intestine with the main absorption site being the colon, which means people who have lost their colon due to surgery may absorb less propranolol. Propranolol shows marked interindividual variability in pharmacokinetics, with propranolol levels varying 20-fold in different individuals.[1]
Distribution
The volume of distribution of propranolol is about 4 L/kg or 320 L. The plasma protein binding of propranolol is approximately 90%, with a range of 85 to 96% in different studies. Propranolol is a highly lipophilic drug achieving high concentrations in the brain. The brain-to-blood ratio of propranolol in humans ranges from 15:1 to 33:1, whereas the ratio for the peripherally selective beta blocker atenolol has been found to be 0.2:1.[2]
Metabolism
Propranolol undergoes metabolism via aromatic hydroxylation (mainly 4-hydroxylation), N-dealkylation, side-chain oxidation, and glucuronidation. The metabolism of propranolol involves cytochrome P450 enzymes including CYP2D6, CYP1A2, and CYP2C19. CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 have a major role, while CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 have a minor role. The main metabolite 4-hydroxypropranolol, which has a longer elimination half-life than propranolol, is also pharmacologically active.[1]
Elimination
Propranolol is eliminated in urine. Approximately 91% of an oral dose of propranolol is eliminated in urine as 12 metabolites. Only about 1 to 4% of propranolol is excreted unchanged in urine or feces.[7]
The elimination half-life of propranolol ranges from 2.8 to 8 hours in different studies, with a typical half-life of around 4 hours. The duration of action of a single oral dose is longer than the half-life and may be up to 12 hours if the single dose is high enough (e.g., 80 mg).[1]
Pharmacogenomics
There were no significant differences in area-under-the-curve levels of propranolol in CYP2D6 poor metabolizers versus extensive metabolizers. However, area-under-the-curve propranolol levels were ~2.5-fold higher in Caucasian CYP2D6 poor metabolizers or Chinese people with a non-functional CYP2D6 gene. The contribution of CYP2D6 to the metabolism of propranolol is less than with metoprolol and is described as only "marginal".[64] WP
