Dear lybrate-user
Since you are just 24, the interactions should not be too much or severe.
There is a possibility of interaction and you will have to stay in close contact with your treating doctor to watch out for liver function, muscle pain and mood fluctuations.
Consider making dietary changes and alternate between a reasonable cardio and weight training schedule so that your mood and health are both positively affected.
