Can I take Atanolol and Seretralin together?

Why this happens

Both medications can affect your heart rate and blood pressure. Sertraline can also slightly interfere with how the liver processes certain beta-blockers, potentially increasing their effect, though this is less common with atenolol than other drugs in its class.

What you should do

It is generally safe to take these together, but you should monitor how you feel. Be careful when standing up quickly from a sitting or lying position. If you feel very dizzy, experience a very slow pulse, or feel like you might faint, contact your GP.
