Do Valsartan And Zoloft Interact With Each Other?

My 64 yr old husband has been taking valsartan 160 for over a yr, 2x a day, for his BP He is my 97 yr old Mother s 24/7 caretaker for the last 3 yrs & he has developed some anxious, worrysome behaviors w/ his concern for her care, running a house full time and being an Italian, heehee. I am a teacher & last yr. my family doc started me on Zoloft, for my anxiety & stress at work. It seems to help & I was wondering if my husband might be a candidate for Zoloft too? Of course, he would speak to his cardio doc & get the prescription from her. Would there be interactions w/ those 2 drugs? Or is there anything else he might speak to her about trying?

if no investigations or follow up in these 2 years have been done , some may have to be repeated like 2d echo, lipid profile , renal function and blood sugars
