Nadolol

How is this medication used?

Nadolol is typically taken once daily, with or without food. The dosage depends on the patient's medical condition and response to treatment. It is important to take this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. Do not stop taking nadolol without consulting your doctor, as suddenly stopping therapy can worsen your condition.

What are the possible side effects?

Common side effects include dizziness, lightheadedness, tiredness, and nausea. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Although unlikely, nadolol can cause serious side effects such as shortness of breath, blue fingers/toes, mood changes, or severe dizziness. Notify your doctor immediately if you experience any serious side effects.

What are the potential interactions?

Nadolol can interact with other medications, vitamins, or herbs you may be taking. An interaction is when a substance changes the way a drug works. This can be harmful or prevent the drug from working well. Be sure to inform your doctor about all your current medications and any you start or stop using. Notably, nadolol can interact with drugs for asthma (like albuterol), certain antidepressants, other blood pressure medications, and medications that can slow heart rate, among others.
