/ What this is not
This page is a transcription, not an interaction checker. It cannot see what else you take, it does not rank anything by severity, and a topic that does not appear here simply was not in the sections transcribed. That is not a statement that a combination is safe. Bring these questions to the clinician who has your full medication list.
