Can I take Bisoprolol and Spironolactone together?

Why this happens

Both medicines work to lower blood pressure in different ways, so their effects add together. Additionally, both drugs can interfere with how your body gets rid of potassium, which can lead to high levels of this mineral in your system.

You can take these together, but your doctor should monitor you closely. You will likely need regular blood tests to check your kidney function and potassium levels. If you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or notice an irregular heartbeat, contact your doctor. Avoid using salt substitutes that contain potassium.
