Besides or other than

Anonymous Does Do 'besides' and other than' mean the same thing?

In your phrase, yes, but they are not completely interchangeable.

He's not feeling good because he overslept. Besides, he has a terrible cold.

You can't say Other than, he has a terrible cold for that last sentence.

In the dictionary I can't find the definition where the 2 are interchangeable.
