Description
Nilol Tablets contain a combination of atenolol and nifedipine, used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina pectoris. Atenolol is a beta-blocker that reduces heart rate and cardiac output, while nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing blood pressure. This combination is particularly effective for patients who need both medications to manage their condition.
