Resting heart rate is 75-80 bpm. i take 12.5mg of atenolol for anxiety. is this a good number for resting heart rate?

Resting HR: There really is no optimum resting HR. Everyone is set a little differently. Normal is 60-100. The dose of atenolol is really small for your age. It is clearly not suppressing your heart rate much.
