Is this medicine my doctor prescribed for lowering my high blood pressure good?


I am 24 and just found out today I have high blood pressure... The doctor prescribed me Tenormin its generic is called Atenolol and I was wondering if anyone who used it saw good results? He said he prescribed this particular one because my worst symptom is headaches and this is supposed to help with those...

I've worked in cardio for 6 years. Atenolol is a good one for high bp. But your only 24? Keep a log of your blood pressure 2-3 times a day or a few weeks and show it to your dr (you can fax them in). High bp can cause the headache, if the bp is under control, headaches may go away. If it's under control and headaches persist, they may be being caused by something else.

I have'n tried Tenormin yet my Doctor has me on Lotril and it's working well. trust in your Doctor and give this new med a try it will take you atleast one week for you to determine if it's the right one for you.
good luck
