A member asked:
What can i expect when switching from atenolol to pindolol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart rate: These are both beta blockers, so the switch over should be pretty smooth. Because pindolol has intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, it will likely not lower your heart rate as much, and your heart rate with exercise will not be as blunted.
