Just work closely: It's good that you know to be careful about side effects and interactions. This should be no worse a risk for you than others but it is more important to advise your Dr(s) of ALL other meds you take and to ALL watch closely for possible side effects. There may be none - but if there are - you'll catch it in time to be okay. Best!
