Here's what FDA-approved drug labeling shows.

MODERATE

Interaction Found

Taking albuterol with metoprolol can be risky. Metoprolol (a beta-blocker) can block albuterol from working properly, which may cause severe difficulty breathing. Your heart rate and blood pressure could also be affected.

What to do: Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about these medications. Do not stop taking either drug on your own. Your doctor may adjust your doses or monitor you more carefully to keep you safe.
