Not a good idea: Combining a stimulant and a sedative so close together is dangerous and should only be done under the direction of a competent treating physician.

Usually no problem: Anxiety and ADHD are problems that are often diagnosed together, and it is no surprise considering how stressful ADHD can be. The important thing here is to make sure that you and the prescriber(s) of your medication have a clear idea of what your diagnoses are, and you all agree on how to treat them. So if you are not sure about combining prescription medication, please have that discussion.
