Tenoclor 50 mg+25 mg Tablet

The initial dose is Atenolol 50 mg and Chlorthalidone 25 mg once a day. If an optimal response is not achieved, another antihypertensive agent may be added gradually beginning with 50 percent of the usual recommended starting dose to avoid an excessive fall in blood pressure. Atenolol is excreted via kidneys and therefore dosage should be adjusted in cases of severe impairment of renal function.

Use in elderly: Clinical studies of Atenolol & Chlorthalidone combination did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects.
