I have been on Atenenol for 5 months and I have suffered from the following. I have had nausea, depression, feeling tired all the time, can't sleep at night, and sometimes my hands and feet are swollen. I didn't think it was from the atenenol, but after reading some of the other ppl's side effects I am starting to think it is caused by the meds. I am on it for hpb, and I am only 30.

I have been on atenolol for about 9 months. I take 1/2 of a 25mg tablet. I also experience tiredness. At times I have weak moments that last about 20 minutes, then I began to feel better. I have some cramping in my calves at times. I walk each day but have shortness of breath during these walks. I thought that is was just because I have trouble pulling the hills. I also have the cold fingers and toes at times. I do feel a little depression and don't have much creativity as I once did. I read that Atenolol could cause congestive heart failure. I'm thinking of tapering off, any comment?

I was taking Atenolol for about three years and suffered from dizziness, anxiety attacks, depression, wheezing and shortness of breath, muscular aches and pains, but some of those symptoms may have been caused by other medication I was, and still am, taking.
I stopped taking atenolol but also stopped taking the cholestrol-lowering tablets just before that and got them replaced by the doctor.
The aches and pains stopped and the depression almost gone, but still experimenting.
Trouble with doctors is they always give you and treat you with tablets that will have no come-back on them - just in case, so we never know where we stand. I had thought of suggesting taking niacin and asking the doctor`s advice but I know what he`d say and advise me not to take them to clear himself; point is, my cholestrol dropped from 7.8 to 3.6!!

On Atenolol for over three years, extreme fatigue, nightmares, depression and excessive hairloss. This stuff is toxic and should be banned.
