Hello, Pauline! How are you?

Only your doctor can give you a definitive answer, but most likely they meant you take them together to raise your dosage.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and weight changes.

Is there anything else I can help with?
