Hi I have been addicted to cocaine for about 8 yrs. I have drug induced psychosis. I have been put on T. Olapx 5mg twice a day. T.Qutan 50mg once a day and T.Baciof OD 30 mg once a day. I had complaints of heaviness in the chest and restlessness I was recommended T.Petril Beta ( propranolol 10mg. Clonozepam 0.25). Should I have the beta blocker as I am also gaining wt despite serious gymming and dieting.
