Atenolol? Atenlol is a common misspelling of atenolol.
Atenolol (Tenormin®), a type of beta blocker, is approved for treating several conditions relating to the heart and blood vessels. Some atenolol uses include controlling high blood pressure, relieving angina symptoms, and improving survival after a heart attack. However, the drug is not suitable for everyone. Before starting treatment with atenolol, make sure your healthcare provider is aware of any other medications you are taking (including supplements and vitamins), as well as any medical conditions you have. Possible side effects include dizziness, depression, and shortness of breath.
