Abstract
Data regarding the use of propranolol in pediatrics are limited despite its widespread use in adults.

Recently it has been also used for the management of hemangiomas in addition to other indications. The purpose of this review is to evaluate safety and efficacy of propranolol use in the pediatric population, highlighting the most important reported side effects, warnings and precautions.
