Uses
- Hypertension Atenolol tablets are indicated for the treatment of hypertension, to lower blood pressure.
- Lowering blood pressure lowers the risk of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events, primarily strokes and myocardial infarctions.
- These benefits have been seen in controlled trials of antihypertensive drugs from a wide variety of pharmacologic classes including atenolol.
- Control of high blood pressure should be part of comprehensive cardiovascular risk management, including, as appropriate, lipid control, diabetes management, antithrombotic therapy, smoking cessation, exercise, and limited sodium intake.
- Many patients will require more than 1 drug to achieve blood pressure goals.
How to take
- Hypertension The initial dose of atenolol is 50 mg given as one tablet a day either alone or added to diuretic therapy.
- The full effect of this dose will usually be seen within one to two weeks.
- If an optimal response is not achieved, the dosage should be increased to atenolol 100 mg given as one tablet a day.
- Increasing the dosage beyond 100 mg a day is unlikely to produce any further benefit.
- Atenolol may be used alone or concomitantly with other antihypertensive agents including thiazide-type diuretics, hydralazine, prazosin, and alpha-methyldopa.
