Brief Answer:
Should be avoided

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
These both medicines have high sedation potential and can cause you excessive sedation, drowsiness and confusion if taken together.

In cases where a person is already on any anti depressant with high sedation, one should an anti allergic that has lowest sedation like Desloratidine.

This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
