Hypertriglyceridemia, HDL levels with beta blockers without ISA [22] Hyperglycemia and new-onset diabetes; Hypoglycemia: Beta blockers can mask the sympathetic effects of hypoglycemia (e.g, tachycardia, sweating), leading to dangerous silent (asymptomatic) hypoglycemia. [23] Weight gain
In many patients using beta-blockers, hypoglycemia was caused by poor oral ingestion as a result of infection. When using beta-blockers, due care should be
Although beta blockers could increase the risk of hypoglycemia, the difference between subtypes on hypoglycemia and mortality have not been studied.
Beta blocker use is associated with increased odds of hypoglycemia among hospitalized patients not requiring basal insulin, and odds are greater for selective beta blockers than for carvedilol. The odds of hypoglycemia-associated mortality are increased with selective beta blocker use or nonusers but not in carvedilol users, warranting further
Beta-blockers may prevent early warning signs of hypoglycemia, such as tachycardia, and increase the risk for severe or prolonged hypoglycemia at any time
to spontaneous hypoglycemia or to patients with labile diabetes as beta ophthalmic beta-blocker solution is administered concomitantly with oral calcium
Beta-blockers may prevent early warning signs of hypoglycemia, such as tachycardia, and increase the risk for severe or prolonged hypoglycemia at any time
beta-blockers, β-blockers, beta-adrenergic blocking agents, beta Hypoglycemia can occur with beta blockade because β2-adrenoceptors normally
Beta-blockers may worsen, prolong, or cause hypoglycemia (Ref). Additionally, beta-blockers may mask symptoms of hypoglycemia (tremor, irritability

Don’t know if the Dirk Blocker character was a shout-out to the actor (and son of Dan Blocker.....Hoss Cartwright on the old Bonanza show) or not.
