atenolol and Hallucinations

atenolol has been researched along with Hallucinations in 4 studies

Atenolol: A cardioselective beta-1 adrenergic blocker possessing properties and potency similar to PROPRANOLOL, but without a negative inotropic effect.
atenolol : An ethanolamine compound having a (4-carbamoylmethylphenoxy)methyl group at the 1-position and an N-isopropyl substituent.

Hallucinations: Subjectively experienced sensations in the absence of an appropriate stimulus, but which are regarded by the individual as real. They may be of organic origin or associated with MENTAL DISORDERS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The validity of this hypothesis was tested in a double-blind crossover study in which the hydrophilic beta-blocker atenolol was compared with the lipophilic agents metoprolol and propranolol, in 14 patients with a previous history of nightmares or hallucinations when treated with lipophilic beta-blockers."5.05Central nervous system side-effects with hydrophilic and lipophilic beta-blockers. ( Westerlund, A, 1985)
"Nocturnal urinary melatonin excretion was evaluated in six patients with nightmares and hallucinations during treatment with beta-adrenoceptor blocking agents, and compared to six control patients with similar diagnoses and treatment but without such symptoms from the central nervous system (CNS)."3.67Depressed melatonin secretion in patients with nightmares due to beta-adrenoceptor blocking drugs. ( Brismar, K; Mogensen, L; Wetterberg, L, 1987)
