Is Flagyl And Lincocin Safe For G6PD Deficiency Patients?

Hi, I have G6PD deficiency. My dentist did RTC yesterday and gave me

1. Flagyl (Metronidazole)

2. Lincocin (Lincomycin HCL Monohydrate)

3. Synalgo (Flurbiprofen).

Kindly guide me whether can I take these medicines keeping in mind my G6PD deficiency. I forgot to tell him about my G6PD.
