Swapping Xanax 0.5mg for Inderal LA 80mg (Nausea)?!

Swapping Xanax 0.5mg for Inderal LA 80mg (Nausea)?

For the past year I have been roughly taking a 0.5mg daily dose of Xanax for anxiety and panic attacks. Recently though I wanted to try something different because I see Xanax as a short term aid rather than a long term helpful drug. The doctor decided to give me Inderal LA 80mg (Beta blocker) and told me to taper off the Xanax. I have been taking this for 2 days now and I have been feeling very nauseous. It's a strange almost gagging nausea and for some reason it hasn't affected my appetite.

My question is this. Since I have no experience of Beta Blockers I was wondering if the nausea was more to do with the Inderal or more likely coming from the fact that I'm reducing the Xanax. I don't want to stop the Inderal in case it's just the Xanax leaving my system but I don't want to continue feeling sick if it's the Inderal.

Any ideas or experience of this ?

p.s When I have stopped Xanax before I have had a slight felling of nausea but nothing compared to this.

Thanks in advance

I have researched the drug. It is mainly a blood pressure drug but it's also used in the treatment of anxiety because it stops adrenaline flowing to the brain during an attack.

please research inderal on the computer as far as i know its a blood pressure medication:

Propranolol is in a class of drugs called beta-blockers. Beta-blockers affect the heart and circulatory system (arteries and veins).

Propranolol is used to reduce hypertension (high blood pressure), to treat angina (chest pain), to treat irregular heartbeats, to treat migraines, to treat tremor, and to reduce the risk of a recurrent heart attack.
