TENOCHLOR 50MG TABLET is used to treat high blood pressure. It contains Atenolol and Chlortalidone, which acts by altering the response to nerve impulses in the heart. Consequently, the heart beats slower and lowers the blood pressure. Also, it reduces the amount of water (fluid) in the body by boosting the volume of urine produced by the kidneys, which helps to lower blood pressure. As a result, it aids in blood pressure regulation. Some people may experience low heart rate (slower-than-expected heart rate), cold extremities, diarrhoea, nausea, and fatigue (feeling tired). Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.
