When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

Benztropine should not be used in angle-closure glaucoma. Although benztropine does not appear to have any adverse effect on simple glaucoma, it probably should not be used in angle-closure glaucoma as anticholinergics cause mydriasis and they may exacerbate this condition.
