4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Atenolol is a beta-adrenoceptor blocking drug indicated for:
hypertension
angina pectoris
cardiac arrhythmias
myocardial infarction: early intervention in the acute phase and late
intervention for long term prophylaxis after
recovery from myocardial infarction
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
POSOLOGY
ADULTS
_HYPERTENSION_: Initially 50 mg daily. The full effect of this dose
will usually be seen within 1-2 weeks. If an optimal
response is not achieved the dosage may be increased to 100 mg daily.
A further reduction in blood pressure may be
achieved by combining Ateni with other antihypertensive agents.
_ANGINA PECTORIS_: 100 mg once daily or 50 mg twice daily. It is
unlikely that additional benefit will be gained by
increasing the dose.
_CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS_: 50 mg-100 mg daily after having controlled the
arrhythmias with intravenous atenolol.
_EARLY AND LATE INTERVENTION AFTER MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION:_ Oral
treatment with Ateni can be initiated in
haemodynamically stable patients with 50 mg twice daily, and then 100
mg once daily. During the early phase of acute
myocardial infraction, treatment with Ateni should be initiated in
hospital under close monitoring.
Discontinue atenolol if bradycardia and/or hypotension requiring
treatment or any other untoward effects occur.
Ateni 100 mg daily is recommended for long-term prophylaxis of
myocardial infraction.
