rate&nbsp;(less than 55 beats per minute)<\/strong>&nbsp;.<\/li><li>if you have had a severe&nbsp;<strong>allergic reaction<\/strong>&nbsp;(eg to insect bites or certain foods) or if you are or should be undergoing&nbsp;<strong>desensitization treatment as Carveratio may reduce the effect of medicines used to treat such allergic reactions.<\/strong><\/li><li>if you have&nbsp;psoriasis.<\/li><li>if

(eg&nbsp;<strong>alpha&nbsp;<sub>1<\/sub>&nbsp;receptor antagonists, nitrates<\/strong>&nbsp;) and drugs for which a decrease in&nbsp;blood pressure&nbsp;occurs as a&nbsp;side effect&nbsp;,

defects.&nbsp;Carveratio should only be used during pregnancy if your doctor considers it necessary.&nbsp;Therefore, always consult your doctor before using Carveratio during pregnancy.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not known whether carvedilol passes into breast milk and therefore Carveratio should not be used during breast-feeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving and using machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires sharpened attention.&nbsp;One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and \/ or&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;.&nbsp;Descriptions of these effects and&nbsp;side effects&nbsp;can be found in other sections.&nbsp;Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.&nbsp;If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dizziness and tiredness may occur at the beginning of treatment, after increasing the dose, when changing the product or in combination with alcohol.&nbsp;With the right&nbsp;dose, it is not known whether carvedilol reduces the ability to drive or use machines.&nbsp;If you feel dizzy or weak when taking the tablets, you should avoid driving or work that requires sharp attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carveratio contains lactose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have been told by your doctor that you have an intolerance to some sugars, contact your
