Detailed Answer:
Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

Yes, atenolol causes Rashes and Purpura. You are right in that. Please stop taking the medication and consult your treating physician. He may think of replace it with some other medicine. If for hypertension, he may try HCTZ drug as an alternative that doesn't have such adverse reactions.


Have a wonderful time ahead. Hope I answered all of your questions. Let me know if you have any further clinical concerns. I will be happy to get back to you shortly. If satisfied here, please give a five star rating and don't forget to close the discussion.
