Tenormin 50mg tablet 28 pack

Tenormin is a medication that contains the active ingredient atenolol. It belongs to a class of drugs known as beta-blockers. Here are some key details about Tenormin:

• Uses: Tenormin is used to treat angina (chest pain) and hypertension (high blood pressure). It is also used to lower the risk of death after a heart attack.
• How it works: Tenormin affects the heart and circulation (blood flow through arteries and veins). It works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in your body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This effect lowers the heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.
• Dosage: The dosage of Tenormin is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it.
• Side Effects: Tenormin can cause side effects that may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be awake and alert.
• Warnings: You should not use Tenormin if you have a serious heart condition such as “AV block,” very slow heartbeats, or heart failure. Do not stop taking Tenormin without first talking to your doctor. Stopping suddenly may make your condition worse.
