Atenolol, is a medication of the beta blockers type, primarily used to treat high blood pressure and angina. Other uses include the prevention of migraines. It works by slowing down the heart and reducing its workload. Unlike propranolol, atenolol does not readily pass through the blood–brain barrier, thus decreasing the incidence of central nervous system side effects.Introduced in 1976, atenolol was developed as a replacement for propranolol in the treatment of hypertension. Atenolol is one of the most widely used β-blockers in the United Kingdom and was once the first-line treatment for hypertension. The role for β-blockers in general in hypertension was downgraded in June 2006 in the United Kingdom, and later in the United States, as they are less appropriate than newer blood pressure medications including calcium channel blockers, thiazide diuretics, angiotension converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and angiotensin receptor blockers, particularly in the elderly. |
