Inderal is a beta blocker... that causes some kinds of amnesia/memory loss in those who take it. It can also cause depression in some people. This is why it is not used to control blood pressure much anymore.

I think this action is what is being used for PTSD. And I think a time window of opportunity is needed for its best results. But you'd have to look that up yourself.

Type into Google ... propranolol PTSD ...and there and many articles about its use:

This is a new finding I just posted here in fact on PTSD:
