What is Tenolol 100
Tenolol 100 is a prescription-based medication used to treat heart and blood pressure issues. It contains Atenolol (100 mg) as an FDA-approved active ingredient. Atenolol belongs to the beta-blocker class of medicines. Ipca Laboratories Ltd. manufactures Tenolol 100 Tablet in its GMP-compliant production facilities.
Atenolol's mechanism of action involves blocking certain beta-adrenergic receptors in the heart. In return, this action leads to a slowed heart rate, lowered pressure on the heart, improved blood circulation, and reduced blood pressure. Tenolol 100 Tablet uses are the treatment of Hypertension (High Blood Pressure), Angina and Arrhythmia. It also improves survival after a heart attack when prescribed. It is also prescribed to reduce the future risk of Stroke, heart attack, and other heart issues by controlling blood pressure.
Take Tenolol exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Generally, For Hypertension, Atenolol is commonly started at 50 mg once daily and then increased to 100 mg once daily if needed. For Angina, 100 mg once daily is commonly used, depending on response. Do not stop it suddenly, as this can worsen chest pain, heart rhythm changes, or blood pressure control.
If a dose of Tenolol is missed, take it when remembered. Skip it if the next dose is near. In case of overdose, seek urgent medical consultation, particularly if you faint or a slow heartbeat occurs. Furthermore, common side effects include dizziness, tiredness, nausea, diarrhea, and lightheadedness. Seek medical help if they don’t subside after a while, or if shortness of breath and swelling are observed.
As a precaution, inform your doctor if you have Asthma, Diabetes, Hyperthyroidism, or heart issues. Atenolol is reported to interact with medications such as Clonidine, Verapamil, Diabetes medicines, NSAIDs, and certain Asthma medicines. Store Tenolol 100 tablets below 25°C, away from direct light, moisture, and heat. Keep them out of reach of pets and children, and discard them once the medication expires.

Although Tenolol is filtered out through the kidneys, medical supervision is required for its use if you have any liver disease.
Kidney Impairment
Atenolol is cleared primarily by the kidneys. Therefore, dose adjustment will be needed in case of severe kidney impairment, and elderly patients can be prescribed lower starting doses.
Pregnant and Breastfeeding women
Use Atenolol during pregnancy and while breastfeeding only if clearly prescribed by the doctor, as it is linked with fetal harm.

Avoid Tenolol tablets if you have issues of slow heartbeat, heart block, cardiogenic shock, uncontrolled heart failure, or an Atenolol allergy.
