i think you should call your health care provider's office about this. your insurance company cannot change your prescription dosing. only a licensed medical professional can do that. please call your doctor or pharmacist right away to clarify the instructions for taking this medication. if the atenolol is provided as a tablet it's possible you may be able to split the tablet and continue to take one 50-mg dose twice a day. but i do not want you to do that without guidance from your pharmacist or health care provider. hope this helps!
