No significant drug interactions would be likely to occur if Sertraline or clonazepam are taken with those other prescribed medications.
However, clonazepam should not be taken for indefinitely long durations, as it has potential for developing addiction/ dependence in the long run. It should be tapered down in dose,based on your requirement, after consultation with a Psychiatrist.

Both drugs are quite safe in terms of interactions. However clonazepam shouldn't be continued for long and can be tapered as per response.
Next Steps
Can continue medicines without hesitation. In case of excessive sedation can stop clonazepam.

You can take them. No significant interaction in this combination. However you may not need clonazepam in longterm.
