Does Ursodiol Interact With Coumadin, Propranolol, Lexapro And Synthroid?

I am on TPN and my gallbladder is sludging up after 7 months of TPN. My gastro is suggesting Ursodiol 2X per day to treat the gallbladder sludge. I also take 7.5 mg coumadin each day in the evening to treat blood clots in the mesenteric, portal and splenic veins. I do have non-bleeding varices and am on 20 mg propanolol daily to reduce blood pressure. I also take 10 mg Lexapro daily for mild depression/anxiety and .150 mg daily synthroid for hypothyroidism. Are there any interactions or down sides of taking Ursodiol?
