There are some interactions between the drugs included in the question. The combined use of these medicines may be therapeutically beneficial, but the patient should be closely monitored for signs of toxicity during the use of such a combination. Inhibition of serotonin uptake by serotonin reuptake inhibitors (e.g., Dulsevia) and tricyclic antidepressants (e.g., Pramolan) may increase the risk of serotonin syndrome. Serotonin syndrome is manifested m.in confusion, agitation, fever, sweating, ataxia, hyperreflexia, muscle clonic seizures and diarrhea. This condition is distinguished by the so-called triad of symptoms, which includes: 1. Vegetative disorders, i.e. an increase in blood pressure, fever, diarrhea, vomiting and mydriasis. 2. Psychiatric symptoms, consisting of anxiety disorders, feelings of anxiety and confusion. 3. Neuromuscular ailments, i.e. recurrent cramps, pain and increased muscle tone. Therefore, if you observe this type of side effects, you should inform your doctor, who will decide on this basis about further proceedings.
And is such a set of drugs safe for the body? It is true that I am already taking 3 weeks such a set of drugs and so far it is ok but I still have a long way to go..

In most cases of dental procedures, local anesthetics are used. The use of local anesthetics does not have a systemic effect and does not affect the effectiveness and safety of other drugs used: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/srodki-do-znieczulenia-miejscowego I encourage you to inform your dentist about the medicines used. This will allow you to choose a safe agent for local anesthesia.
