Yes: There are no interactions between the two.

Maybe: These two antibiotics can be taken together but you should let each of the two doctors know what the other has prescribed. It may be necessary to only take one. These broad spectrum antibiotics may create numerous complications with secondary infections. Be careful. Discuss with the doctors. I doubt both are necessary.
