A member asked:
I take 50mg of atenolol daily on a split dose for tachycardia. does this benefit me?is it a safe drug?it is said to help heart

Yes: This is safe and effective for long term use. Beta blockers are beneficial in many ways including tachycardia control. Don't discontinue the medicine abruptly. It is safest to taper it off if you decide for some reason to quit.
