Anxpro Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Alprazolam and Propranolol. Alprazolam is a benzodiazepine that increases the action of GABA, a chemical messenger that suppresses abnormal and excessive activity of the nerve cells in the brain. Propranolol is a beta blocker that blocks the action of certain chemical messengers on the heart and blood vessels, reducing heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.

Anxpro Tablet is used for the treatment of anxiety. It can take a week or two for the effect to build up and 4-6 weeks to feel the full benefit. Do not stop taking it unless your doctor tells you to. Stopping treatment suddenly can cause problems. Avoid getting up too fast from a sitting or lying position to prevent dizziness. Inform your doctor if you are due to have an operation or dental treatment.
