Composition of Atekind-50
Atekind-50 contains Atenolol (50mg). It belongs to the Beta-blocker (beta-1 selective) class of medicines.
Uses of Atekind-50
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Angina pectoris (chest pain)
- Control of heart rate in certain tachyarrhythmias
- May be used post-myocardial infarction as advised by physician
Benefits of Atekind-50
- In High blood pressure
- Atekind-50 slows the heart a little and lets it beat with less force, bringing blood pressure down and reducing the long-term risk of stroke and heart attack.
- In Angina
- Atekind-50 reduces how hard the heart has to work, so it needs less oxygen and you get fewer episodes of chest pain on exertion.
- In Heart failure
- Atekind-50 protects a weakened heart from the stress hormones that would otherwise strain it further, improving how well it pumps over time and lowering the risk of hospital admission.
- In Irregular heartbeat
- Atekind-50 steadies the heart's rhythm and keeps the rate from racing, which eases palpitations and the dizziness or breathlessness that come with them.
How Atekind-50 works
Atenolol is a selective beta-1 adrenergic blocker. It reduces heart rate and the force of contraction, lowering cardiac output and blood pressure. It also decreases myocardial oxygen demand, helping prevent angina.
