Brief Answer:
Safe.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have read your query.
Usually there is not serious interaction between medicine you are taking apart from just both have common side effect like nausea, dizziness etc.
I also prescribe these medicines to my patients.
Its safe to have these, but you should take one by one and not together.
I hope it helps.
