hydroCHLOROthiazide bisoprolol

Using hydroCHLOROthiazide and bisoprolol together may lower your blood pressure and slow your heart rate. This can cause dizziness, or feeling like you might pass out, weakness, fainting, fast or irregular heartbeats, or loss of blood glucose control. If you take both medications together, tell your doctor if you have any of these symptoms. You may need a dose adjustment or need your blood pressure checked more often to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Moderate

hydroCHLOROthiazide methyl aminolevulinate topical

Applies to: bisoprolol / hydrochlorothiazide and methyl aminolevulinate topical

Methyl aminolevulinate topical causes your skin to be more sensitive to light in areas where it has been applied. The risk and/or severity of reactions such as redness, scaling, swelling, stinging, and burning may be increased when it is used with other drugs that can also increase sensitivity to light such as hydroCHLOROthiazide. You should avoid exposure to sunlight or bright indoor lights (examination lamps, operating room lamps, tanning beds, lights at close proximity) during and for 48 hours after treatment as directed by your doctor. Since sunscreens will not protect you against photosensitivity reactions associated with methyl aminolevulinate topical, you should protect treated areas by wearing a wide-brimmed hat or other protective apparel if exposure to sunlight or other intense lights cannot be avoided. Be advised to reduce your light exposure if you experience sensations of stinging and/or burning. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
