• Clindamycin: May antagonize the neuromuscular effects of neostigmine
• Halogenated inhalational anaesthetics: May antagonize the neuromuscular effects of neostigmine
• Quinine and related compounds: May increase clinical severity of myasthenia gravis and reduce neostigmine effectiveness
• Beta-blockers: May reduce effectiveness in myasthenia gravis; concurrent use may result in severe bradycardia
• Suxamethonium: Neostigmine inhibits its metabolism, prolonging and enhancing its clinical effect (combined use not recommended)
• Non-depolarizing muscle relaxants: Neostigmine antagonizes their effect (therapeutic use)
• Atropine: Antagonizes the muscarinic effects of neostigmine (used therapeutically to manage side effects)
