[|AI|]  Hello and thank you for using Chat Doctor. I carefully read your question and I understand your concern. I will try to explain you something and give you my opinion. Atenolol belongs to the class of beta- blockers. It lowers heart frequency and through a secondary mechanism it lowers blood pressure. He has this effect.he might lower heart frequency too much. You explain that your doctor saw something on ECG. Maybe he sows low heart frequency and this is why he exchanged it with something else. Telma is a good medication. He belongs on ARB class and lowers blood pressure, so keep taking that because it's fine. Hope I was helpful. Best regards, Chat Doctor.
