Antibiotics ??

Hi all, I have been diagnosed with Graves’ disease today but known about it since and been take Carbimazole for 7 months. For a totally separate issue with my toe,

I have been prescribed Flucloxacillin (Antibiotics, that contain lots of different Iron-oxides) the specialist told me I should cut down on certain foods with Iron in, so I would like to check if the antibiotics a different doctor prescribed me can have any negative effects on me if I take them.

I might just be overthinking this, but thought best to check 😅 thanks in advance.
