hi, you question makes sense.
You can safely take all the above drugs mentioned. They do not harm your kidney in any way. As they are not antibiotics, few missed doses are not going to be detrimental.
your last question- potrate is generally safe, rarely it may produce some distaste and dry tongue. Apart from that there are no major side effects.
Hope i have cleared your doubt.
