Description:
Tenormin 25mg Tab contains atenolol, a beta-blocker. It is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure), angina pectoris (chest pain due to reduced blood flow to the heart), and arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats). It can also be used to prevent future heart attacks and strokes.
Atenolol works by blocking the effects of adrenaline on the heart and blood vessels, which slows down the heart rate and lowers blood pressure. It is usually taken once or twice daily.
The main side effects of this medicine are fatigue, slow heart rate, feeling dizzy, diarrhea, and nausea. These are usually mild and short-lived. It may also cause shortness of breath or low blood pressure in some people. To reduce the risk of side effects your doctor will probably start the medicine at a low dose and gradually increase it. Consult your doctor if the side effects bother you or do not go away.
