Which is best for anxiety...toprol or inderal?

The reason I ask specifically is I also have mitral valve prolapse so I have to take a beta for that. I currently take toprol but have heard that inderal may be better for anxiety, which I also have.

i take 25 mg of atenolol which is related to other two for mvp and also have anxiety. i would not say atenolol helps with my anxiety because i battle it everyday. they say beta blockers are really supposed to slow you down but mine really does not. not sure about toprol or inderal though.

Inderal works great. I wish I could take it. It caused me stomach issues. Now I am left with nothing to take. Dr said it's good for anxiety. It did help me. Everyone is different though. What works for me may not be good for you.
