Tenoren Tablet 100 mg contains Atenolol, a selective beta-1 adrenergic blocker widely used for the management of various cardiovascular conditions. It helps control high blood pressure, reduce heart workload, and improve overall heart function. This higher strength formulation is typically prescribed when greater blood pressure control or stronger beta-blockade is required.

Atenolol works by slowing the heart rate and reducing the force of contraction, thereby lowering blood pressure and decreasing the heart’s oxygen demand. It is an effective and commonly used medication for long-term cardiovascular management.

Indications

Tenoren Tablet 100 mg is indicated for:
