Answer
Hi Joann,

Thanks for your question. There are no drug interactions when you take lorazepam and citalopram together. There are no drug interactions with diovan as well. However, make sure you take levothyroxine tablets by mouth 30—60 minutes before a meal (on an empty stomach) with a full glass of water. The doses should be taken at regular intervals as indicated on the medication label. After you take your levothyroxine, then you could take all of your other meds.

Please feel free to follow-up with any other questions.
