I have epilepsy, and I'm a little worried about the huge dose of propranolol triggering a seizure before the process is completed. Haven't seen too much info on the topic. Feel free to PM me!

In conclusion, propranolol and its two enantiomers have anticonvulsant effects in models for generalized tonic–clonic and complex partial seizures which may be accounted for by the sodium channel blocking and not by the ß-adrenoceptor blocking activity. I recommend stat. dose of anti-emetic, especially if you are inclined to wander post-ictally.

Hey, thanks for your response. Yes, I am planning on the stat method.

It also said that it can cause seizures... Drugs often are self contradictory.

I guess you're used to cope with seizures & can take SN after, a little later?

I'm scared of so many pills at once when I can't even bear a tilenol... I want to just take SN and water? Buy 4 doses...

Nearly every drug that affects the brain has the possibility of causing seizures, unfortunately. Including those meant to prevent seizures, ha. It's a gamble, for sure, but I could literally have a seizure while I'm typing right now. The stat method is my best bet so that I can get the SN down before my brain catches up. If I have a seizure after I've passed out, that's fine.

Luckily, I'm okay with swallowing a bunch of pills. Nausea is my biggest enemy

There are some classes of meds. that are prone to cause szs., however that entails lowering the sz. threshold. The Meto. may, the Propranonol highly nope. I was born with epilepsy.

So does propanolol and metoclopramide increase or decrease seizure threshold?
