Used For:

Atenolol is a beta-blocker commonly prescribed to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and prevent heart-related issues such as angina (chest pain) and heart attacks. It is also used to manage arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats) and to reduce the frequency and severity of migraines. Atenolol works by blocking the action of certain chemicals (such as adrenaline) on the heart and blood vessels, which lowers heart rate and blood pressure.

Side Effects:

Common side effects include fatigue, dizziness, cold hands or feet, and slow heart rate (bradycardia). Some individuals may also experience shortness of breath or difficulty sleeping. Rare but more serious side effects include low blood pressure, severe bradycardia, or worsening heart failure. Allergic reactions, such as rash or swelling, can also occur, though they are uncommon.

Precautions:

Atenolol should be used cautiously in individuals with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or other respiratory conditions, as it may worsen breathing problems. It should also be avoided in those with certain heart conditions, such as severe bradycardia or heart block. Individuals with kidney problems may need dose adjustments. Atenolol should not be stopped abruptly, as this can lead to a sudden increase in heart rate and blood pressure. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using this medication
