Anti hypertensive so if blood pressure is down if it acts like lopressor did for me it made me tired and less anxious. Love Phillipa

I know that theoretically it's considered something that might be useful, as norepinephrine may be overactive in people with social phobia or generalized anxiety, and the drug reduces norepinephrine by acting on its feedback system (alpha 2 receptors). Sorry, but I don't have any personal experience with it. There might be some study abstracts you could google, though.

I think you should probably try a benzo (BZD) if anxiety is a big problem. Tenex is not primarily an anxiolytic.
