What is Atenolol?

Atenolol is a prescription drug that works by blocking the effects of the hormone epinephrine on your heart and blood vessels. This causes your heart to beat slower and decreases your blood pressure, which increases the amount of blood and oxygen to the heart. It can also relax and widen veins and arteries to improve blood flow.

Atenolol belongs to a class of medications called beta-blockers. It is used alone or together with other medications such as chlorthalidone to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), and chest pain (angina), and to reduce your risk of death following a heart attack. Atenolol is also prescribed off-label to prevent migraines and help with anxiety and alcohol withdrawal symptoms.

Once you are on Atenolol, you should not suddenly stop taking it. Abruptly stopping can cause chest pains, irregular heartbeat, and can lead to a heart attack. If you need to come off of Atenolol, it should be gradually done over 7 to 14 days under the supervision of your doctor.
