Hello, Lucy! How are you?
No, these two should not be taken together, since they both increase serotonin levels and that creates the risk of your developing serotonin syndrome, which may be fatal.
Has your doctor prescribed both of these medications?
The FDA lists the typical side effects of antidepressants as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and weight changes.
Is there anything else I can help with?
