Tenoretic 50 Chemical Information

atenolol - A synthetic isopropylamino-propanol derivative used as an antihypertensive, hypotensive and antiarrhythmic Atenolol acts as a peripheral, cardioselective beta blocker specific for beta1-receptors, without intrinsic sympathomimetic effects. It reduces exercise heart rates and delays atrioventricular conduction, with overall oxygen requirements decreasing. (NCI04)

chlorthalidone - A thiazide diuretic of the sulfamoylbenzamide class. Chlorthalidone directly inhibits sodium and chloride reabsorption on the luminal membrane of the early segment in the distal convoluted tubule in the kidney. This leads to an increase in water, sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and potassium secretion and a decrease in calcium and uric acid secretion. Chlorthalidone is used in the treatment of high blood pressure, edema and congestive heart failure.
