Use in pregnancy: Safety in pregnancy has not been established, therefore, atenolol is not recommended for use in pregnant women or those likely to become pregnant, unless the expected benefit outweighs the potential risk. Atenolol has been used effectively under close supervision for the treatment of pregnancy-associated hypertension. There was no evidence of any fetal abnormalities, although atenolol was generally given after 20 weeks of gestation.
Use in children: There is no experience of atenolol with children.
