Brief Answer: Doesn't seem to be any interaction Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for your query. Your present medication doesn't seem to have any interaction with in them. Atenolol though cardioselective may happen to have cough sometimes due to its some effect of bronchoconstriction... Check whether you were taking anti-hypertensive of ACE inhibitor like lisinopril etc which have been stopped recently. Because it may lead to chronic cough and may persist for sometime after its stoppage.... Best wishes
