Beta blockers have been discussed almost annually since Vocalist started
over 5 years ago. Dr. Wendel discussed their medical use. The effects on
singing can be anything from a benefit to a detriment, depending on the
person and why the medication is being used.

If your doctor prescribes a beta blocker and you think it is affecting you,
discuss it with your doctor BEFORE stopping it.
