What is Aten 50 mg used for?

Aten is used to control hypertension. It may be used alone or along with other antihypertensive drugs, particularly with a thiazide diuretic. Blood pressure is the pressure that blood applies to the wall of arteries. Everyone has BP; this pressure helps the blood to be circulated all throughout your body. The medicine is used for high blood pressure, sometimes called arterial hypertension.

The drug is indicated for the long-term management of patients with angina pectoris. Angina pectoris is the chest pain due to ischemia of heart muscles. The main reason behind this chest pain is improper contractility of heart muscles.

Aten is also indicated in the management of hemodynamically stable patients with definite acute myocardial infarction to reduce cardiovascular mortality. Treatment for such cardiovascular problems is a long term.

How does Aten work?

The active ingredient Atenolol present in the medicine is involved in reducing the blood pressure in its own way:

Atenolol stops the signals sent by the nerves to the heart to slow down the activity of the heart. The Atenolol being beta blocker drug blocks the beta-adrenergic receptors (necessary to transmit the messages of activity). As a result, of this, the heartbeat slows down, and pressure within the blood vessels also decreases.

Now, as the abnormal heartbeat slows down, the chances of you having the chest pain (angina) also decreases.
