Drug Uses
Inderal is used for treating hypertension as well as angina pectoris which is chest pain caused by lack of oxygen. It can also be used for treating other problems as and when decided by the medical practitioner.
Usage
Following the dosage instructions of your doctor is the best way to use any medication. If you are unsure or do not remember the instructions then you may read the medicine label for more detailed information.
It is advisable to take Inderal before meals. And you must not stop the dosage even after the symptoms have faded away.
Missed Dose
Despite your best attempts at remembering, if you still miss out on a dose, then take it as soon as you remember about it. But keep in mind that you will have to adjust your next dose by spacing it out by 4 to 5 hours. If this is not possible, then the best thing to do would be to skip the missed dose and continue with your normal dosage schedule.
Never try to compensate for the missed dose by taking a double dose together. It may cause adverse effects.
