Atenolol, as well as other drugs used to treat high blood pressure are very well-know to sometimes cause dizziness in certain people or with prolonged use. It is listed right in the side effects on the drug monograph:

Unfortunately, doctors do not always know all the side effects of the drugs they prescribe, so you may need to print the information out and have her actually show it to her doctor to prove the medication may be causing the issue.
Anyone else have experience with this medication?
