Masking of Hypoglycemic Symptoms in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Beta-adrenergic blocking agents should be administered with caution in patients subject to spontaneous hypoglycemia or to diabetic patients (especially those with labile diabetes) who are receiving insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents.

- ValbenazineVMAT2 inhibitorModerate
Catecholamine-Depleting Drugs Close observation of the patient is recommended when a beta-blocker is administered to patients receiving catecholamine-depleting drugs such as reserpine, because of possible additive effects and the production of hypotension and/or marked bradycardia, which may result in vertigo, syncope, or postural hypotension. (Dorzolamide and timolol label, Drug interactions)
- Verapamilcalcium channel blockerModerate
Oral or intravenous calcium antagonists may cause atrioventricular conduction disturbances, left ventricular failure, and hypotension. (Dorzolamide and timolol label, Drug interactions)
- Vibegronbeta-adrenergic agonistModerate
If necessary during surgery, the effects of beta-adrenergic blocking agents may be reversed by sufficient doses of adrenergic agonists. (Dorzolamide and timolol label, Warnings and precautions)
- VilazodoneSSRIModerate
CYP2D6 Inhibitors Potentiated systemic beta-blockade (e.g., decreased heart rate, depression) has been reported during combined treatment with CYP2D6 inhibitors (e.g., quinidine, SSRIs) and timolol. (Dorzolamide and timolol label, Drug interactions)
- ZonisamideanticonvulsantModerate
• Concomitant use of ZONISADE with any other carbonic anhydrase inhibitor may increase the severity of metabolic acidosis and may also increase the risk of kidney stone formation ( 7.2 ). (Zonisamide label, Drug interactions)

- Penicillin Gpenicillin antibioticMinor
Drug Interactions Bacteriostatic antibacterials ( i.e. , chloramphenicol, erythromycins, sulfonamides or tetracyclines) may antagonize the bactericidal effect of penicillin, and concurrent use of these drugs should be avoided. (Penicillin G label, Drug interactions)
