Ask your doctor: It should be safe, but sometimes there are subtle drug interactions that depend on factors such as your health, how quickly you metabolize medications and the reasons you take the medications. It's best to consult your physician. Hope this answer helps.

It really depends. For example, if a patient were taking a higher dose of mirtazepine, he or she could experience anticholinergic effects. This, in combination with the blood pressure lowering effects of propranolol, could cause significant dizziness when standing. This is just one example of such subtle interactions. It's really best for this particular patient to speak with her doctor.
