Hey Kelly, Glad you are feeling better, however, just to be on the safe side I would double check and make certain when they refilled your atenolol it is actually atenolol! We have had a couple of situations where pharmacies have made an error and put the wrong pills and/or dose in the bottle, even though the bottle was labeled for the actual prescription. Drugs.com is a good place to check any time it looks like the pharmacy changed brands...just go to drugs.com, then click on the tab at the top that says "pill identifier", you can discribe the shape, markings, color of a pill and it will identify what the pill is. I do that now, any time it looks like the brand has changed.
