How it Works

Atenolol is a beta blocker that specifically targets the heart to reduce heart rate and enhance the heart's efficiency in pumping blood throughout the body. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that lowers blood pressure by eliminating excess water and certain electrolytes from the body. Over time, it also relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow.

Side Effects
