Hi doctor,
Since two years my mom is taking Atenolol for hypertension. Her dose is 50 mg per day which she eats half in the morning and half at night. About a week ago, her blood pressure became low and today it was 104/65 mmHg and pulse rate is 51. I would be very grateful for your help. Thanks.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have carefully worked through your case and want to assure that I will manage your mother's case.
- It sometimes happens with hypertensive patients and we need to adjust dosage time to time.
- She should take only 25 mg Atenolol or half the tablet of 50 mg in the morning with breakfast and no medicine at night.
- Please give me a feedback after couple of days on how she is doing.
