Description
Atenolol 100mg tablets are used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), angina (chest pain), and to improve survival after a heart attack.
They belong to the beta-blocker class of drugs.
Atenolol works by blocking beta-adrenergic receptors in the heart, which reduces heart rate and the heart’s workload, lowering blood pressure and decreasing oxygen demand by the heart.
The tablets are taken orally, usually once daily or as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
Common side effects can include tiredness, dizziness, cold hands or feet, and slow heart rate.
Atenolol is contraindicated in patients with severe bradycardia, certain heart conduction problems, uncontrolled heart failure, and hypersensitivity to atenolol.
Caution is needed in patients with asthma, diabetes, or peripheral artery disease.
Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is recommended during treatment.
The medication should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and heat.
