Will Taking Nortriptyline And Buspirone Affect The Sperm Count?

My husband is taking nortriptyline 25 mg, buspirone 15 mg, and naproxen 500 mg. We are trying to conceive and I wanted to know if any of these medicines would decrease sperm count. Would it be ok to take Clomid with these medications? His Urologist had prescribed the Clomid, but he quit taking it because of the cost.
