I've been prescribed Tenormin 50mg Tablets for high blood pressure and chest pain, and I'm curious about other people's experiences. Atenolol is a beta-blocker that slows your heart rate and helps lower blood pressure. I've heard about some side effects that sound pretty scary, like severe dizziness, depression, and even slow heartbeat. I'm hoping to hear from others who've taken this medication. Has anyone had any serious side effects, or is it generally well-tolerated? Also, how long did it take for the medication to start working for you? I'm interested in any tips or advice for managing side effects or any other insights you might have. Thanks!
