It's not a good idea to ask strangers (and "non-pharmacists") if it's safe to take two different prescribed meds. However, Check out this drug interactions site and "plug in" the two drugs you mentioned. http://www.drugdigest.org/DD/Interaction/ChooseDrugs/1,4109,,00.html

My father is a doctor and he has seen several cases of psychosis when these two medications were mixed. My older brother and several others his age are now bipolar and/or schitzophrenic from taking both of these drugs. Although psychosis can also occur from taking either drug alone.

Accutane is a brand-name for isotretinoin, a Vitamin A-like substance that is used to treat acne. Accutane shouldn't interfere with any ADHD medication, however stimulants and isotretinoin can increase skin dryness.

Consult with your doctor to be safe.
