Brief Answer:
Yes it can be, if taken in overdose

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Health care magic.

I read your query and understand your concerns about drug drug interactions.

In the therapeutic dose range both medications can be used together although some patients need dose adjustment. In case proper dose adjustment is done it is completely safe to take both medications together.

In the overdose both medicines can be dangerous if used together or even alone.

So the most important thing about both medicines is dose rather than the combination.

I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.
