Additional inhalations can be taken as required. Concurrent use may increase the effects of sympathomimetics or thyroid hormone. Since bradycardia is a risk factor for development of torsade de pointes (TdP), the potential occurrence of bradycardia during octreotide administration could theoretically increase the risk of TdP in patients receiving drugs that prolong the QT interval. Risk for QT prolongation increases with increased dosage, and a 32 mg IV dose must no longer be used for prevention of chemotherapy induced emesis. Beta-agonists and beta-blockers are pharmacologic opposites, and will counteract each other to some extent when given concomitantly, especially when non-cardioselective beta blockers are used.
