Hello!

Welcome back on - Ask a Doctor - service!

I passed carefully through your concern and would like to further explain that you may use Amlodipine and Xanax (the latter for up to about two weeks), but it would not be a good idea of using Atenolol as it would decrease further your heart rate (you are actually bradycardic 50 bpm).

Just try to keep monitoring your Bp values and heart rate in order to conclude on the most appropriate therapy.

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
