Inderal Dosage for Angina
To improve
angina symptoms, the recommended dosage is anywhere from 80 mg to 320 mg of
Inderal daily. This amount is taken as smaller doses two, three, or four times a day, based on your healthcare provider's recommendation. For example, your healthcare provider may recommend 40 mg twice a day.
Inderal Dosage for Atrial Fibrillation
For
symptoms of atrial fibrillation, your healthcare provider may prescribe an Inderal dose of 10 mg to 30 mg, taken three or four times a day before meals and at bedtime.
An injectable form is also available for use in treating irregular heart rhythms (usually in emergency situations).
Inderal Dosage Following a Heart Attack
Following a
heart attack, the specific dose of Inderal recommended can vary based on a number of factors. It is generally anywhere between 180 mg and 240 mg a day. This amount is taken as smaller doses three or four times a day based on your healthcare provider's recommendation. For example, your healthcare provider may recommend 60 mg three times a day.
Your healthcare provider may start you with a lower dosage before increasing to the recommended dosage.
Inderal Dosage for Migraines
For
migraine prevention, the starting dose of Inderal is 80 mg a day, taken several times a day in smaller doses (such as 40 mg twice a day). Based on the
migraine response and/or
Inderal side effects, your healthcare provider may increase or decrease the Inderal dosage.
An improvement in the number of
migraines should be noticed within four to six weeks. If it is not, your healthcare provider may have you slowly stop the Inderal over several weeks and then switch you to another
migraine medication.
