Medicine pack check sheet

Source-linked reading points

• Check TENORMIN, atenolol, oral-tablet form, the stated 25/50/100 mg per tablet, actual NDC, 90-tablet bottle and target market together. Mg is the labelled amount in an exact tablet, not a web rule for an individual's daily tablet count or for self-exchanging another strength, brand, form or beta blocker.
• The label's appearance description shows a bisect score on the 50 mg tablet; that only helps identify this exact tablet. Whether it may be split, how to address swallowing difficulty, or whether another strength is needed must be confirmed from the actual prescription, current label and a pharmacist or prescriber—not from a score, a prior pack or this webpage.
• The label contains cautions involving sudden discontinuation, heart rate/blood pressure, kidney function, respiratory disease, pregnancy/breastfeeding and the presence of other medicines on the list. These need professional review in the actual context. Do not self-start, adjust, stop, combine, alternate or replace it because of a feeling or another same-class pack.
• With fainting, breathing difficulty, marked palpitations/abnormal heart rate, chest pain, a severe allergic reaction or another acute serious concern, prioritise local emergency medical care. Do not wait for a web search or self-counteract or test with another pack.
