i have lost about 35/40 pounds and was getting really tired and lacked energy. my dietician says it needed to cut back on my atenolol (cut 50 mg in half). It made a difference. I am starting to feel that way again and my blood pressure is normal or usually below normal. Can I go completely off now or should we evaluate all of my medications? I am also on Metformin, Lisinopril, actos, glipizide extended, felodipine, simvastin, straline and buspirone.

Thanks

Hi,

Welcome to the forum.

I can't comment on the other medications, but with Atenolol, you will need to taper off. Ask your GP for advice :)
