Thank you for your question and welcome to ADHDCentral.com.

 

I am not a medical professional and would not be able to give you medical advice. This question is one that you should ask your doctor.

 

However, in searching for an answer for you I did find that these medications are sometimes prescribed together. The Mayo Clinic even did a study combining these medications to see if there was a better chance of quitting smoking by taking both medications, so I would assume that they felt it was safe to take both medications.

 

I would suggest speaking with your doctor and asking about possible interactions and what side effects you should be aware of when taking both.
