I may be soon forced to switch from atenolol to metoprolol due to the supply problems with the former. atenolol has worked for me for 20 years.

Well: Yes very hard to get atenolol right now. Metoprolol is an excellent medicine and should do well for you. Just monitor your blood pressure and see how you do
