It is only safe if at least one of the prescribing doctors knows what the other has prescribed also. Some antibiotics must never be taken together, and others can be taken together safely.
To be safe, ask at least one of the doctors about it. If that is not possible, at least discuss it with the pharmacist who fills the prescriptions.

∙ 14y agoyes and no. Antibiotics are like tools, they are used to fight a specific type of organism. IE: certain antibiotics are given for an upper respiratory infection and a totally different one given for skin infection. You should ALWAYS ask your doctor why he/she is prescribing a medication, what it is intended to do, and how to take the medication. Lastly, after all that, you should take the antibiotic EXACTLY as prescribed and DO NOT stop taking them once you feel better, take ALL of the antibiotics or you risk the infection returning with a greater vengence and thus harder to treat. As a general rule with ANY medication, ask your doctor what the drug is prescribed for, what side effects you may experience and what symptoms to call him/her back for at what time interval. Always finish all antibiotics given, and ask if how you are to take the medication (ie: with or without food, avoiding grapefruit/juice, with full glass of water, etc).
