Is it safe to take Aten 25mg almost every day for a fast heart rate, even though my doctor originally prescribed it to be taken only as needed for anxiety?

Asked by Female, 22 · 22 days ago

While Aten (atenolol) is commonly prescribed for anxiety and heart rate control, taking it daily instead of 'as needed' changes how your body adapts to the medication. Because daily use can steadily lower your heart rate and blood pressure, it is very important to consult your doctor before making this change. They can safely evaluate why your heart is racing and ensure this medication is still the best and safest option for you. Please avoid adjusting your dose or stopping it suddenly without their guidance.
