Description
About Normitab Atenolol 25mg Tablets
Normitab Atenolol 25mg contains Atenolol, a cardioselective beta-1 adrenergic blocker prescribed for hypertension, angina pectoris, and cardiac arrhythmias. By selectively blocking beta-1 receptors in the heart, Atenolol reduces heart rate, lowers cardiac output, and decreases myocardial oxygen demand — making it especially suitable for patients who also have asthma or COPD, where non-selective beta-blockers are avoided.
Normitab 25mg is typically the initial or lowest dose in the Normitab range, used when mild-to-moderate blood pressure control is needed or when titrating up cautiously (e.g., in elderly patients or those with renal impairment, where dose reduction is recommended). It is also used in post-MI patients to reduce the risk of further cardiac events. Do not stop Atenolol abruptly — abrupt withdrawal can cause rebound hypertension, angina, or serious arrhythmias; always taper under medical supervision. Use with caution in patients with reactive airway disease. For a full list of heart and cardiovascular medicines available in Pakistan, browse our anti-hypertensive collection.
Key Benefits
- Lowers high blood pressure effectively with once-daily dosing
- Reduces angina (chest pain) frequency and severity
- Controls cardiac arrhythmias and stabilises heart rate
- Decreases risk of heart attack and stroke
- Cardioselective — lower risk of bronchoconstriction vs. non-selective beta-blockers
- Suitable for post-MI cardioprotection
How to Use
Take one tablet once daily with water, at the same time each day, with or without food. Dose adjustments are required in renal impairment (GFR below 35 mL/min). Monitor blood pressure and heart rate regularly. Do not stop without consulting your doctor. This is a prescription-only medicine — always follow your doctor's instructions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Normitab Atenolol 25mg used for?
A: It is prescribed for high blood pressure (hypertension), angina (chest pain), and irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias).
