Medical Description
Beta Anxit 20 mg Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Alprazolam and Propranolol that is used to treat anxiety. It is also used to manage panic disorder, migraine, and stress.
This medication is used to treat anxiety, marked by tense feelings, concerning thoughts, and physical changes such as elevated blood pressure. The symptoms include restlessness, difficulty sleeping, sweating of hands and feet. This medication is useful in treating panic attacks, characterised by abrupt, intense fear, breathing problems, chest discomfort, and other symptoms.
It works by increasing the activity of Gamma-Aminobutyric acid, a chemical messenger in the brain that inhibits abnormal and excessive nerve cell activity. Propranolol is an antihypertensive (reduces blood pressure) that inhibits the action of certain chemical messengers on the heart and blood vessels. This reduces the heart rate, blood pressure, and stress on the heart.
Some side effects of Beta Anxit 20 mg may occur, including difficulty in breathing, weight gain, loss of coordination, drowsiness, skin rashes, headache, nausea, and indigestion. If these adverse effects persist, consult the doctor.

Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Beta Anxit 20 mg is a medicine that combines the effects of two different medications: alprazolam and propranolol. Alprazolam works by boosting the action of Gamma-Aminobutyric acid, a chemical messenger in the brain that prevents nerve cell activity that is aberrant or excessive. Propranolol is a beta-blocker that prevents chemical messengers from acting on the heart and blood vessels. This lowers heart rate, blood pressure, and heart stress.
Interactions
Interactions with other medicines
- Beta Anxit 20mg Tab may interact with:
- Cetirizine
- Avoid using Alprazolam with cetirizine or levocetirizine. If you're taking these medications, don't drive or operate heavy machinery.
- Antifungal drugs
- Antifungals containing azoles, such as ketoconazole and itraconazole, should be avoided while taking Alprazolam since they can produce greater sedation and ECG abnormalities.
- Antihypertensives
- If these medicines are taken together, you may suffer hypotensive symptoms such as dizziness and lightheadedness. Blood pressure should be checked on a regular basis.
- Metoclopramide
- Avoid using Alprazolam in conjunction with metoclopramide. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery if you are taking these medicines. Dose adjustments or medicine substitutions should be made under the supervision of your doctor.
Interactions with food items
- Before or after taking the tablet, consuming grapefruit juice, tea, or coffee can cause major adverse effects. Coffee stimulates the brain, whereas Beta Anxit 20 mg relaxes it. As a result, drinking too much coffee may reduce the ability of this medicine to calm brain activity.
