Summary
Dasiglucagon may release catecholamines in some settings, and beta-blockade can blunt the resulting rise in heart rate while leaving alpha-mediated pressor effects unopposed. Transient increases in blood pressure and pulse may occur. Glycemic rescue is generally still effective.

Bisoprolol and Dasiglucagon have a small, usually unimportant interaction. Most people can take both; the pharmacist may still mention it so that any unexpected effect is recognised.
