Propranolol - dry lips!

Hi. I was put onto propranolol for my anxiety but every time I take it my lips become extremely dry and bleed, this happens even if I only take one tablet.

Has anyone experienced this and/or know a way to resolve it?

THANKS
How long have you been on it for and how many milligrams do you take? I haven’t experienced any symptoms yet other than fatigue but maybe that’s because I’ve been drinking quite a lot of water lately. Drink loads of liquids and water x
talk to your gp/ pharmacist

40mg but I only took it once before my lips reacted strongly, so I stopped temporarily.

Thanks I’ll do both. I can’t remember how much water I drank at the time that I tried the meds.
