A member asked:

Should 12.5 of atenolol be taken every 12 hours if prescribed twice daily and what is its peak plasma concentration time?

Yes: but it needs not be exactly every 12 hrs. You may take it between 10-14 hours apart if 12 hr interval is not feasible. Regardless of the peak level, you should follow your doctor's instruction on how to take your medication and contact him if you have questions.

Not quite!: Atenolol is considered a once daily drug. Take in the evening!
