Dear Omri, thank you for your question. Cough and nausea are not common side effects of atenolol. However, the only way to find out if atenolol is causing these symptoms is to stop the medication and see what happens. Before you do that, you must check with your physician.
I hope you find this information useful. Information provided in the heart forum is for general purposes only. Only your physician can provide specific diagnoses and therapies. Please feel free to write back with additional questions. Good luck!
