Can Celexa Be Taken Along With Cyclobenzaprine?

I take celexa 30 mg and klonopin 1 mg. Today after I visited quick care for muscle back pain, I was prescribed cyclobenzaprine oral 10 mg. I did the drug interaction check and it looks there is a serious warning about taking celexa and this muscle relaxant. The physician assistant had a full list of the current medications I amm taking. Should I take the cyclobenzaprine? I am worried about the serotonin syndrome mentioned in the interaction of those drugs.
