Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

nadolol bendroflumethiazide

Applies to: Corzide 80 / 5 (bendroflumethiazide / nadolol) and Corzide 80 / 5 (bendroflumethiazide / nadolol)

Using nadolol and bendroflumethiazide 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

bendroflumethiazide verteporfin

Applies to: Corzide 80 / 5 (bendroflumethiazide / nadolol) and verteporfin

Using verteporfin together with bendroflumethiazide may cause an increase in photosensitivity reactions, which could cause your skin to burn when exposed to light. Check with your doctor to see if you should temporarily withhold any of your medications before and after treatment with verteporfin. You should avoid exposure of skin or eyes to sunlight or bright indoor lights (examination lamps, operating room lamps, tanning beds, lights at close proximity) for 5 days after treatment with verteporfin. If you must go outdoors in the daylight during this 5-day time frame it is important to protect your skin and eyes by wearing protective clothing and dark sunglasses, even if you cannot see the sun (e.G., cloudy day). Exposing your skin to normal indoor lighting is helpful as it will help your body get rid of verteporfin more quickly, so you do not need to stay inside in the dark. 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.

Let your doctor know if you develop these symptoms and they do not go away after a few days or they become troublesome.
