Hi,

Based on the history you have had pregnancy induced hypertension. The exact cause of this condition is not known however it may lead onto chronic hypertension later in life.

Atenolol is a heart-selective beta receptor blocker commonly used in the treatment of hypertension. Its common side effects include low blood pressure, decreased heart beats, cold and clammy skin, fatigue and sleep disturbances.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
