Hi and welcome. I hope I can help.
Well, I dont think this may cause serious side effetcs and you should not be worried since this is small dosage and there are no serious interactions between these two medications. You should just drink plenty of fludis and ave usual medications intake. If there is symptom such as dizziness,heart palpitations, shortness of breath or chest pain then you need to see doctor.
Wish you good health. Kindly regards
