Hi, Rosie!
Since most medications are metabolized by the liver and/or kidneys there is some potential for side effects, especially at high doses for long periods of time. This is really a question you need to ask your doctor or pharmacist but you can start by using this link to see potential side effects of each of your medications:

Type in the name of your drug and click on Side Effects. Read the Professional information under Musculoskeletal, Renal, Hepatic.
