Bedranol SR is a brand name for the medication propranolol hydrochloride in a sustained-release (SR) formulation, which is designed to release the drug slowly over time to maintain a consistent level of medication in the bloodstream. Propranolol is a type of drug known as a beta-blocker, which works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in the body, such as adrenaline, on the heart and blood vessels. This action helps to lower heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart. Bedranol SR is commonly prescribed for a variety of conditions, including high blood pressure, angina (chest pain), certain types of tremors, and to prevent migraines. It may also be used in the management of symptoms associated with anxiety. Due to its sustained-release formulation, Bedranol SR allows for once-daily dosing, offering convenience and aiding in compliance with the treatment regimen.
