Brief Answer:
No, there should be no issues.

Detailed Answer:
Hi there,

I've read through your question and understand your concern.

Like many others in your situation, it is a normal concern.

In 99% of people, these medications won't have any problems with each other.

Occasionally, and rarely, you will see side effects when combined. It is very rare. You should have close follow up with your endocrinologist with routine blood work for monitoring. Muscle cramps and myalgias can happen but usually improve over time. Some people might have fatigue.

I hope this helps.
