Propranolol is of a class of drugs known as beta blockers. These drugs inhibit the ability of epinephrine and other stress hormones to bind to certain cell receptors. The result is the reduction of the effects of stress hormones. Propranolol is used primarily to manage cardiac arrhythmias but may also be used to treat hypertension, anxiety and panic.

No. It will most likely slow your heart down and make you feel depressed. It can also be used by anxious public speakers to reduce tremulousness of the hands and voice, as well as rapid pulse.
