Probably safe: one study looked at 9 people taking both. You can google this and see a range of side effects. I am not aware of a specific pharmo-kinetic interaction ie reason for the medication to interact and cause symptoms. Curcuma has been studied recently in a memory study and proved at 90 mg bid to be helpful at 18 month. Curcuma has anti-inflamatory properties which may help depression.
