- Wikipedia is not the place to ask or receive personal advice. Best option would be to ask your friend directly - it would likely show your support to them, allow them to open up and talk about themselves indirectly: are the medicines for hypertension or heart problems - talking about the medicines is less awkward than asking directly about their health and any concerns or fears they might have.

This seems like a nicely written article, but a few citations would make it better. I am looking at standardizing the format of pharmaceutical compounds with a good lead paragraph and then details on the drug's profile following the FDA's product insert.--Chrispounds 11:51, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Millions of trade names!
I was going to add Noten to the list of trade names of atenolol, but then I realised this drug has a bajillion of them, so I decided against it. (As it's only called noten in several backwater countries...) Still, would it be a good idea to put a list of commercial trade names on this drug's page? Here is but a short list: Alinor; Altol; Anselol; Antipressan; Apo-Atenolol; Atcardil; Atecard; AteHexal; Atelol; Atenblock; Atendol; Atenet; Ateni; Atenil; Atenol; Atereal; Aterol; Atolmin; Betablok; Betacard; Blokium; B-Vasc; Catenol; Coratol; Corotenol; Evitocor; Farnormin; Felo-Bits; Hypoten; Hipres; Internolol; Lo-ten; Loten; Lotenal; Myocord; Normalol; Normiten; Noten; Oraday; Premorine; Prenolol; Seles; Serten; Stermin; Tenidon; Tenoblock; Tenolin; Tenolol; Tenoprin; Tenormin; Tenormine; Tensig; Tensimin; Tredol; Urosin; Vascoten; Vericordin; Wesipin; Xaten
Any suggestions as to what to do? Anybody on one of these trade names and not knowledgable enough to search for atenolol won't find this page. Serrin 01:00, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- Tenormin is the branded trade name in US, UK and Australia for the innovator company AstraZeneca. I would list only that name. --Chrispounds 01:17, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
