ATENOLOL+INDAPAMIDE consists of Atenolol and Indapamide medicines. Atenolol is a 'beta-blocker' and treats high blood pressure, angina (chest pain) and uneven heartbeats (arrhythmias) by reducing the heart rate and making the heart pump blood throughout the body.
Atenolol is a hydrophilic betareceptor blocking drug, which is predominantly eliminated via the kidneys, only about 5% of the atenolol is metabolised by the liver. After oral administration atenolol is incompletely absorbed from the intestine, so about 50% of the beta blocker are finally biovailable.
Indapamide is rapidly and completely absorbed within 1 hour in humans, reaching peak concentrations of 140 nglml after a 10 mg oral dose. Elimination from plasma is biphasic with an initial rapid elimination followed by a long terminal phase of 18 hours.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
