Interactions with other medicines

• Certain medicines can interact with Aten 50 tablet or this medicine itself can affect the way other medicines work.
• Tell your doctor about all the medicines, supplements, and herbals you are currently taking or might take to avoid any possible interaction.
• Concomitant use of the Aten 50 tablet along with medicines of class calcium channel blockers Verapamil, diltiazem, and nifedipine (for high blood pressure or chest pain) should be avoided.
• Concomitant therapy with dihydropyridines, e.g. nifedipine, may increase the risk of low blood pressure and cardiac failure.
• Concomitant use with insulin and oral antidiabetic drugs along with beta-blockers should be avoided, as beta-blockers may mask the effect of too low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia).
• If you are taking clonidine and Atenolol tablets together, do not stop taking clonidine unless your doctor tells you to do so. Abruptly stopping clonidine can cause fluctuations in blood pressure.
• Use medicines to treat nose or sinus congestion or other cold remedies carefully along with the Aten 50 tablets.
• Medicines like Ibuprofen or indomethacin (for pain and inflammation) may decrease the activity of beta-blockers hence co administration should be avoided.
• Concomitant use of sympathomimetic agents, e.g. adrenaline (epinephrine), may counteract the effect of beta-blockers.

• Store Aten 50 tablet away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store it in a closed container, in a cool and dry place.
