Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.
Professional:In vitro and animal studies have suggested that chloroquine may increase serum levels of some oral beta-blockers. The possible mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 2D6 hepatic metabolism. It is recommended that the patient be monitored for beta-blocker toxicity during coadministration and for beta-blocker efficacy when chloroquine is discontinued. Renally excreted beta-blockers such as atenolol, carteolol, nadolol, or sotalol are not expected to interact.
