Product Details

Description

Atenidone is a prescription medication that contains atenolol, a beta-blocker commonly used to manage high blood pressure and other cardiovascular conditions. Atenolol functions by blocking specific receptors in the heart and blood vessels, helping to slow the heart rate and reduce blood pressure. This action helps manage heart-related conditions such as hypertension, angina, and irregular heart rhythms. Atenidone is a fixed-dose combination of atenolol (a beta-blocker) and chlorthalidone (a thiazide-like diuretic), available in two strengths: 50 mg/25 mg and 100 mg/25 mg.

The dosage prescribed depends on the patient's medical condition and response to treatment. It is important to take Atenidone exactly as directed by your physician, usually once daily. The medication is generally suitable for adults diagnosed with high blood pressure (hypertension), angina (chest pain), or certain types of irregular heartbeats. Atenidone helps the heart work more efficiently and decreases the risk of complications such as heart attacks or strokes. Common side effects include tiredness, dizziness, or cold hands and feet. If you have severe symptoms like swelling of the ankles, shortness of breath, or an unusually slow heartbeat, seek medical attention immediately.

Before taking Atenidone, inform your doctor if you have any respiratory problems, diabetes, or kidney issues, as these conditions require careful monitoring during treatment. You should not stop the medication suddenly without consulting your physician, as this may worsen your condition. In case of a missed dose or overdose, consult your doctor. They will guide you on what should be done in such cases. Avoid taking extra or double doses. Store Atenidone in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight & moisture, and keep it out of reach of children. Always adhere to your healthcare provider’s instructions and discuss any concerns during treatment.

How It Works

Atenidone contains a combination of atenolol and chlorthalidone, a diuretic. Atenolol works by selectively blocking beta-1 adrenergic receptors in the heart, decreasing strain on the heart, and managing hypertension. On the other hand, chlorthalidone increases the excretion of sodium and chloride through urination, causing a decrease in blood pressure. Together, these components function synergistically to improve cardiovascular health by maintaining stable blood pressure levels and reducing the risk of heart-related complications.

Side Effects

Common Side Effects of Atenidone: Similar to other medicines, Atenidone can cause certain mild symptoms which are usually manageable and diminish over time. Common Atenidone side effects mainly include:

  • Low blood pressure, especially when standing up: This is one of the most common chlorthalidone-related side effects, as it helps remove excess fluids from the body, which can lower blood pressure. However, a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing may cause dizziness or fainting.
  • Cold feeling in the nose, fingers, or toes: Beta-blockers like atenolol can reduce blood flow to extremities by constricting blood vessels, causing cold extremities.
  • Dizziness: This medicine lowers blood pressure, which may reduce flow of blood to the brain, causing dizziness. This effect is more pronounced when standing up quickly.
  • Depression: Beta-blockers have been linked to mood changes, including depression. The exact mechanism behind this is unclear, but it may be related to decreased adrenaline activity in the brain.
  • Feeling extremely weak or tired: Lowered heart rate and blood pressure can reduce oxygen delivery to muscles, leading to fatigue and weakness.
  • Nausea: Chlorthalidone affects electrolyte balance, which can irritate the stomach lining and cause nausea.
  • Shortness of breath: Beta-blockers can constrict airways, making breathing difficult, particularly for those with asthma or lung conditions.
  • Diarrhea: Changes in fluid balance due to this medicine can affect digestion, sometimes causing diarrhea.
  • Itching: Some people may experience itching due to an allergic reaction or skin sensitivity caused by the medicine.
  • Rash: Skin reactions, including rashes, may occur due to a hypersensitivity reaction or irritation from the drug.
  • Electrolyte changes and increased blood sugar: Chlorthalidone can cause imbalances in potassium and sodium levels, affecting muscle function and increasing blood sugar levels.
  • An increase in how much you pee: Chlorthalidone, a diuretic, can increase urine production, helping to remove excess fluid and decrease blood pressure.
  • Muscle pain: Electrolyte imbalances caused by chlorthalidone can cause muscle cramps or pain.

Serious Side Effects of Atenidone: Severe side effects, though less frequent, have been reported in some people using Atenidone. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience the following reactions. These mainly include:

  • Severe allergic reactions: This combination medicine can cause allergic reactions, which may be serious. You should discontinue this medicine and seek prompt medical attention if you experience symptoms of a severe allergic reaction, such as fever, breathing difficulties, swollen lymph nodes, hives, nausea, stomach cramps, joint pain, or nausea/vomiting.
  • New or worsening heart failure: This medicine can worsen existing heart failure or cause a buildup of fluid in your body. For people with existing heart disease or damage, this medicine can cause potential heart failure over time. You should inform your doctor immediately if you experience trouble breathing, swelling in your feet, unusual rapid weight gain, or unusual fatigue.
  • Bradycardia: The combination of atenolol and chlorthalidone can make your heart beat slower than usual. Call your doctor or healthcare provider at once if you have confusion, unusual fatigue, chest pain, or lightheadedness.
  • Low blood pressure with worsening kidney function: The water loss caused by this medicine can cause low blood pressure and further lead to dehydration. Both lead to problems that are more severe than light-headedness/ poor blood flow to essential organs, such as your kidneys, may occur, especially if you are an elderly patient using Atenidone. Tell your doctor if you have weakness, sudden weight gain, confusion, decreased need to pee, increased thirst, dizziness, dry mouth, headache, rapid heartbeat, or dark-colored urine.
  • Breathing problems: This medicine may cause bronchospasm in some individuals, especially those with a history of respiratory issues. This may become serious if left untreated. If you experience trouble breathing, discontinue using the drug and contact your doctor.
  • Electrolyte changes and hyperglycemia: This medicine can raise your blood sugar levels and cause changes to your electrolyte levels. These changes may be serious. Your healthcare provider may recommend bloodwork to check your glucose and electrolyte levels, especially if you take certain other drugs. Its symptoms include fatigue, weakness, constipation, muscle cramps, dizziness, difficulty breathing, seizures, or restlessness.
  • Severe skin reactions: Atenidone can cause severe skin reactions like SJS and TEN that can even cause death if left untreated. If you develop a rash, discontinue using it or call your doctor or healthcare provider immediately.
  • Pancreatitis: This medicine can cause inflammation of the pancreas. Discontinue use and call your medical provider if you have vomiting or severe pain in the upper part of your stomach that travels to your back.
  • Hepatotoxicity: This medicine can damage the liver of some users. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, fever, itching, loss of appetite, light-colored poop, dark-colored urine, or jaundice.

[Note: This list may not cover all possible side effects. Always consult with your healthcare giver for medical advice about side effects.]
