no known interactions

Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

There is no interaction between dayquil and the anti hypertensive medications mentioned (metoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide)

There are possible interactions between metoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide but if you have been using them with no problem then you may not need to be concerned.
They both increase the toxicity of each other. Very very rarely can cause an acute increase in eye pressure resulting acute glaucoma.

They can be used together, just monitor for an issues

In addition , they both decrease the levels of potassium in the body so levels should be monitored.

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
