I would not even begin to start giving suggestions where mixing antibiotics are concerned. I could research it but it's very easy for you to check yourself. You can do the exact same search I would do. What I suggest is that you take advantage of the features of this web site. Go to the top of this page and find the "drug interactions checker" located just below the search box. You can check interactions for every medication you and your family take. I have used it for a pretty long time. I'm sure you will find the answers there that you need. You can do a google search and lots of the results that come up are usually what comes from this web site. They have tons of information available here. It's a very user-friendly feature. Good luck.
