This is a common problem. I recommend you contact the pharmacy where you're getting the prescriptions you're already on, and give them a list of your new meds. Ask to have the pharmacist there review it for interactions. At the very least, they should know about the new meds you're on. It's very kind of a fellow boarmember to offer to do that, but your pharmacist needs to have this information.
