When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

Some antidepressants exert mydriatic activity that can induce increased intraocular pressure and result in angle-closure (narrow angle) glaucoma in a patient with anatomically narrow angles who does not have a patent iridectomy. Prior to initiating therapy with these agents patients should be examined to determine whether they are susceptible to angle closure, and have a prophylactic procedure (e.g., iridectomy), if they are susceptible. The use of these drugs in patients with untreated anatomically narrow angles should be avoided.
