Product Overview
About TEVA-ATENOLOL
TEVA-ATENOLOL is a medication used to treat high blood pressure and certain heart-related conditions. It belongs to a class of drugs known as beta blockers, which work by slowing the heart rate and reducing the force of the heart's contractions.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) to lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems.
- Management of angina (chest pain) caused by coronary heart disease.
- Reduction of the risk of death from heart disease in patients who have had a heart attack.
Active Ingredient & Action
TEVA-ATENOLOL contains the active ingredient atenolol, a beta-1 selective (cardioselective) adrenergic receptor blocker. Atenolol works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in your body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This results in a decrease in heart rate and blood pressure, which can help to reduce the workload on the heart and improve blood flow.
Important Notes
Before taking TEVA-ATENOLOL, inform your doctor if you have any medical conditions, including heart disease, heart failure, or kidney disease. Also, tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is essential to follow the dosage instructions provided by your doctor and not to exceed the recommended dose. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure and heart rate may be necessary while taking this medication.
