Answers:
atenolol is basically a blocker of Epinepherine for the heart.
Epinepherine (adrenalin) is a sympathetic nervous system
chemical that increases heart rate, constricts peripheral vessels, and increases circulation to the muscles and internal organs. Block it, or partially block some of the receptors, and the heart rate will slow down. Follow your doctors prescription, if you don't feel well, let him know
Toporal or a beta blocker.
