Thanks for the query.
There is no reported interaction between these 2 drugs and l-carntiines so it is safe to used it both in regular dosages. Of course,if you want to see l-carnitine effect then it should be combined with healthy diet and exercise. WIsh you good health. Feel free to ask. Regards

Brief Answer:
Hi and welcome

Detailed Answer:
Yes, you can take and there is no known serious interaciton,but it would be recommendable to take these medcines in lower dosage and if you can choose,better try with 10mg cialis since it will stay in organism for shorter time and it has less effect on blood pressure.
