Brief Answer:
they don't

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

although they don't interact directly, they have the same effect. They are both benzodiazepines. Using both adds up the effect, so the side effects are increased as well. Sedation, respiratory compromise, etc are possible in high doses.

Kind Regards!
