Is There Any Side Effects For Beta Cap Tr And Prothiaden Medicines?
Hi Dr, I have severe back pain and consulted doctor , Diagnosed sponndylolisthesis L5S1, Most of the doctors adviced to do surgrey but one of neurophsycian advised to take Beta cap Tr 40 mg and prothiaden 75 mg for 3 mths is there any side effect or is it ok to take medicine am 34 yrs old.
Spondylolisthesis surgery is advised if the grade of the disease is more than 2 and is advancing. If such is the case with you then I think that by delaying surgery you are only prolonging the inevitable. ..which might actually do more harm than good .
Steroids like beta cap have their own disadvantages. These are nausea drowsiness headaches weightgain osteoporosis (bone loss) and I as a practioner would definitely not recommend it for such a long duration .
Prothiaden can cause drowsiness and is mostly used as a mood elevator .
I hope my advice has helped Good luck
