High blood pressure rarely has noticeable symptoms, and if left untreated greatly increases the risk of stroke and heart attack. High blood pressure occurs for a variety of reasons including genetic predispositions, weight and old age. Medication such as Atenolol tablets may be prescribed to help reduce high blood pressure and therefore reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke.
The tablets should be taken daily with water, there are a variety of dosages but the standard starting dose is between 50-100mg a day.

Atenolol tablets will be most effective in combination with a healthy diet and exercise as this will naturally reduce your blood pressure.

Try to take each tablet at the same time each day.
If you forget to take a tablet take it as soon as you remember. If it is nearer to the time you would take your next dose wait and take it then. Do not take two tablets at once.
