Brief Answer:
Propranolol 10mg is my preferred medication for anxiety!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Propranolol is my preferred anxiety medication. I always recommend that you take this at least 30minutes before the start of any event that generally causes anxiety. I concur with your doctor's decision and look forward hearing your experience as you start this new drug.

I wish you well. Keep me posted and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
