Drug Interaction{}{}{}
<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This drug should not be combined with other beta-blocking agents. Patients receiving catecholaminedepleting drugs, such as reserpine or guanethidine, should be closely monitored, because the added beta-adrenergic blocking action may produce excessive reduction of sympathetic activity. Should be used with care when myocardial depressants or inhibitors of AV conduction, such as certain calcium antagonists (particularly of the phenylalkylamine [<a href=\"https://www.rxlist.com/consumer_verapamil/drugs-condition.htm\">verapamil</a>] and benzothiazepine [diltiazem] classes), or antiarrhythmic agents, such as disopyramide, are used concurrently.</p>
Lactation{}{}{}
<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It is not recommended. Small amounts of bisoprolol fumarate (&lt; 2% of the dose) have been detected in the milk of lactating rats. It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk caution should be exercised when bisoprolol fumarate is administered to nursing women.</p>
