A member asked:

Resting heart rate has been anywhere between 100-135. doctor prescribed atenolol 25mg. about how many point will that lower it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heart rate: Everyone responds to beta blockade as fits their personal physiology. Some people might get a lot of slowing and others less or none. You will know pretty much the maximum slowing by 4-5 days on the 25mg a day of atenolol. If it isn't enough, the 25mg is a low dose.
