Not medical advice - always refer to your MD.

In a study published by Lancet: "Cardiovascular mortality tended to be higher with atenolol treatment than with other antihypertensive treatment. Stroke was also more frequent with atenolol treatment. The results cast doubts on atenolol as a suitable drug for hypertensive patients."

Carlberg, B. Samuelsson, O. Lindholm, LJ. Atenolol in hypertension: is it a wise choice? Lancet. 364(9446): p 1684-1689. 2004.
