Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Atenolol 25 mg/ml Oral Liquid is a specially formulated medication designed for oral administration. This liquid formulation provides a convenient and easily ingested dosage form, ensuring accurate delivery of medication. It is particularly beneficial for patients who find swallowing solid dosage forms challenging, such as children and the elderly.

Atenolol is a beta-blocker that affects the heart and circulation (blood flow through arteries and veins). It is primarily used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure), angina (chest pain), and to improve survival after a heart attack. By lowering high blood pressure, it helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Atenolol works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in your body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This effect reduces heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart.

It's important to note that patients should use Atenolol 25 mg/ml Oral Liquid exactly as directed by their healthcare provider. The dosage is based on the patient's medical condition and response to treatment. It's crucial to continue taking this medication even if you feel well, as most people with high blood pressure do not feel sick. If you suddenly stop taking Atenolol, you may experience serious side effects.

Common side effects of Atenolol include tiredness, nausea, and dizziness. If any of these effects persist or worsen, patients should inform their doctor or pharmacist promptly. It's also important to inform your healthcare provider of any allergies or if you have a history of heart rhythm problems, breathing problems, or diabetes before starting this medication.

For prescribers, it's essential to monitor the patient's blood pressure and heart rate regularly to ensure the medication is working properly. Adjustments to the dosage may be necessary based on the patient's response to the medication. It's also important to consider the patient's other medications, as Atenolol can interact with a variety of drugs.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Atenolol is a beta-blocker that affects the heart and circulation (blood flow through arteries and veins). It 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. However, it's important to be aware of potential drug interactions.

Atenolol can interact with a variety of medications, which can alter how the medication works or increase the risk of serious side effects. Not all possible interactions are listed here, so it's important to inform your doctor about all the medications you're currently taking, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs, and herbal products.

Some products that may interact with Atenolol include alpha blockers (such as prazosin), calcium channel blockers (such as diltiazem, verapamil), drugs that can increase the level of potassium in the blood (such as ARBs including losartan/valsartan, birth control pills containing drospirenone), clonidine, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen).

Atenolol can also interact with certain medications used for asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other breathing disorders. These include bronchodilators such as albuterol, ipratropium, and theophylline. If you are taking any of these medications, your doctor may need to adjust your doses or monitor you more closely for side effects.

It's also important to note that Atenolol can interact with certain heart medications, including other beta-blockers (such as metoprolol) and digoxin. If you are taking any of these medications, your doctor may need to adjust your doses or monitor you more closely for side effects.

Atenolol should not be used with other medications that slow heart rate, including certain antiarrhythmics (such as amiodarone, quinidine), certain calcium channel blockers (such as verapamil), and certain other drugs (such as digoxin, disopyramide).

Remember, this is not a complete list of possible drug interactions. Always consult your healthcare provider to ensure the information displayed on this page applies to your personal circumstances. If you have any questions or concerns about these interactions or about Atenolol in general, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at Bayview Pharmacy. We're here to help.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Atenolol 25 mg/ml Oral Liquid is a specially formulated medication that works by blocking the action of certain natural chemicals in your body, such as epinephrine, on the heart and blood vessels. This effect reduces heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart, helping to prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.

Atenolol belongs to a class of drugs known as beta blockers. It is a selective beta-1 receptor antagonist, meaning it specifically targets beta-1 receptors located mainly in the heart. By blocking these receptors, atenolol inhibits the effects of the sympathetic nervous system, which is part of the body's natural response to stress. This results in a decrease in heart rate, cardiac output, blood pressure, and anxiety.

Furthermore, atenolol can be used to prevent future heart attacks and to prevent migraine headaches. It can also be used to treat irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias) by stabilizing the electrical conduction system of the heart.

The oral liquid formulation of atenolol provides a convenient and easily ingested dosage form. This is particularly beneficial for patients who have difficulty swallowing solid dosage forms, such as tablets or capsules. The liquid formulation allows for accurate dosing and is often preferred for pediatric and geriatric populations, or for patients with dysphagia (difficulty swallowing).

It's important to note that atenolol should be used as directed by your healthcare provider. It should be taken regularly to be effective and it's crucial not to stop taking it suddenly, even if you feel well, as this can worsen your condition. Always consult with your healthcare provider for any questions or concerns regarding your medication.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
