hi,
since you have high blood pressure it is very essential to continue with the atenolol, an anti hypertensive prescribed. however you can also continue taking nutritional supplements, without any problem.

but remember your blood pressure control through atenolol is essential to avoid other complications like heart problem, brain problem etc.

wish you good health
