Consumer:Using esmolol together with timolol ophthalmic can increase the blood levels or add to the side effects of either medication. This can cause a slow heartbeat, a change in intraocular pressure, headaches, dizziness, or feeling like you might pass out. If you use 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 if you 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.
Professional:MONITOR: Ophthalmic beta blocker solutions are systemically absorbed and can produce clinically significant systemic effects even at low or undetectable plasma levels. Additive effects of beta blockade may occur in patients receiving both oral and ophthalmic beta blocking agents.
MANAGEMENT: Blood pressure and intraocular pressure monitoring is recommended during concurrent use. Patients should be advised to notify their physician if they experience a slow pulse, irregular heartbeat, dizziness, shortness of breath, or syncope.
