Using timolol ophthalmic together with midodrine can affect the rhythm of your heart. Contact your doctor if you experience decreased heart rate (i.E., slow pulse, dizziness, and fainting). You may need a dose adjustment or special test 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.

MONITOR: Midodrine, an alpha-1 adrenergic agent may lead to bradycardia if administered concomitantly with any agent that directly or indirectly reduces heart rate. This may be most important for beta blockers and tricyclic antidepressants.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be advised to discontinue midodrine if they experience signs or symptoms of decreased heart rate (i.e., slow pulse, dizziness, syncope, cardiac awareness) and to contact their provider for reevaluation.
