@Sunshine,
For liability reasons, I think it's generally best to discuss this with your prescribing doctor or pharmacist. However you can always look up potential drug interactions via the University of Maryland Medical Center at:
umm.edu/health/medical/drug-interaction-tool
That webpage allows you to plug in specific drug names for an evaluation of their combined pharmacology and what/if any risk factors (or side effects) may be expected in certain scenarios. Sorry I couldn't give you more specific details, but if you have a medication in mind you can simply plug it into that drug interaction tool...
Nevertheless, I'd still encourage you to double check with your medical provider(s) just to be on the safe side.
I hope this helps and wish you good health!
