Summary
Both drugs lower blood pressure, so additive hypotension is possible. Beta-blockers may slightly raise potassium, partly offsetting furosemide's potassium loss.
What this interaction means in plain words
Celiprolol and Furosemide have a small, usually unimportant interaction. Most people can take both; the pharmacist may still mention it so that any unexpected effect is recognised.
Why it happens
Additive antihypertensive effect; beta-blockade reduces cellular potassium uptake.

Monitor blood pressure and serum potassium when starting or changing doses.
