WHAT TENORMIN IS USED FOR
Tenormin is used to:
•
Treat high blood pressure
(hypertension).
•
Treat uneven heart beats
(arrhythmias).
•
Help prevent chest pain
(angina).
•
Protect the heart in the early
treatment after a heart attack
(myocardial infarction).
HOW TENORMIN WORKS
Tenormin contains a medicine
called atenolol. This belongs to a
group of medicines called beta-
blockers. It works by making your
heart beat more slowly and with
less force.
BEFORE YOU USE TENORMIN
-
_When you must not use it _
_ _
Do not take Tenormin if:
•
You are allergic (hypersensitive)
to atenolol or any of the other
ingredients of Tenormin Tablet
50 mg.
•
You have ever had any of the
following heart problems:
-
heart failure which is not
under control (this usually
makes you breathless and
causes your ankles to swell)
-
second- or third-degree heart
block (a condition which may
be treated by a pacemaker)
-
very slow or very uneven
heart beats, very low blood
pressure or very poor
circulation.
•
You have a tumour called
phaeochromocytoma that is not
being treated. This is usually
near your kidney and can cause
high blood pressure. If you are
being treated for
phaeochromocytoma, your
doctor will give you another
medicine, called an alpha-
blocker, to take as well as
Tenormin.
•
You have been told that you
have higher than normal levels
of acid in your blood (metabolic
acidosis).
Do not take Tenormin if any of the
above apply to you. If you are not
sure, talk to your doctor or
pharmacist before taking
Tenormin.
