you should consult with your doctor before changing your dosage. Stopping an Atenolol containing medication or changing it in any abrupt can cause irregular heart beat and even a heart attack.
I actually reduced the dose as a result of consulting with my doctor.
I monitor my blood pressure and heart rate at home.Since reducing
the dose of Atenolol, my blood pressure has remained low/normal
and heart rate avg. about 60 bpm.
