Hi Kiagakash,
Another good source of information on medication and medication interactions is your pharmacist. So, I recommend two steps.
1. Consult your physician about your concerns. If you don't feel you can trust your physician, consider finding a new MD to work with.
2. Consult a pharmacist. You can compare the information your MD and pharmacist share to make a decision regarding the safety of the medication.
All the best,
