Etymology

The word Tenoretic is a brand name for a blood pressure medicine made from two drugs. Its name gives a simple hint: 'teno' comes from atenolol, a heart medicine, and 'retic' echoes 'diuretic' which 'helps remove water', so the name shows it both calms the heart and reduces extra fluid to lower blood pressure.
