    Atenolol overdose?
    I'm 18 years old, 5"2, 120 lbs. I took 8 or a little more of 100 mg atenolol tablets that are prescribed to my dad.
    I didn't feel anything then and I don't feel anything now, it feels like I didn't even take any. Should I be concerned?

    If you suffer from asthma, bronchitis, you would surely be feeling rough. So I guess you are lucky, but you should get checked out. Atenolol is a beta blocker used for hypertension, high blood pressure and cardiac problems. Yes, that was foolish of you.
