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 may interact with other medications, which can affect how it works or increase the risk of serious side effects.
Atenolol should not be used with certain drugs because very serious interactions may occur. If you are taking clonidine, disopyramide, or medication for heart rhythm (such as quinidine, propafenone, flecainide), tell your doctor or pharmacist before starting atenolol. If you have stopped taking clonidine recently, your doctor or pharmacist knows about it before you start taking atenolol. If clonidine is stopped suddenly, it can cause an increase in blood pressure.
Other medications can affect the removal of atenolol from your body, which may affect how atenolol works. Examples include calcium channel blockers (such as verapamil, diltiazem), SSRI antidepressants (such as fluoxetine, paroxetine), epinephrine, fingolimod, among others.
Check the labels on all your medicines (such as cough-and-cold products, diet aids, or NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen) because they may contain ingredients that could increase your heart rate or blood pressure. Ask your pharmacist for more details.
Atenolol is very similar to metoprolol. Do not use medications containing metoprolol while using atenolol.
