just a quicky!! i've been taking propranolol since about july/august time, and for the last month or 2 i've been rather itchy and over the last week i've noticed the skin on my fingers (where the most contact is made between the fingers towards the tips and on the knuckles) is really dry and kinda flaky. as this didnt start when i first started taking them, i was just wondering if this itchiness may be caused by a delayed allergic reaction/side effect? or could it just be something else that's possibly unrelated?
thanks guys
