You know it's not safe. It's never safe. In fact: smoking weed and/or drinking is bad for the body. Why would you take it with your medicine? Only if you ask to die. -______________-

Since you have just started taking the medication, I would refrained from partaking in any drugs. You want to know how the medication affects you, untainted by any other drug. Partaking in drugs can amplify negative effects of the medication so you just want to the symptoms of your meds before you do drugs.

The internet says that bother Focalin and Clonidine don't have any direct effect with alcohol but they do specifically say to not take drugs and drink while starting these meds and if you do partake in drugs, to not operate heavy machinery and the like.

However, it is probably best if you read the pamphlets that come with your meds. They're usually full of useful information. Also, you can ask your doctor. I think legally they aren't allowed to tell authorities if you drink underage or smoke weed.

EDIT:

and about weed, these drugs will probably amplify your high... by a lot. That means it COULD be really good but there's also a great chance that it COULD be really bad. so, I'd be careful. definitely cut back a lot once you start smoking again.

Weed is mixable with anything, and will never hurt you, short of things like, you smoking too much and throwing up or something. Alcohol, however, is a terrible thing to mix with any drug, especially prescription medication. That is a great way to OD and end up in the hospital. Just ask a couple of my friends.

Experience

Well bro ill tell ya what can happen. alright im a big drug user. ive tried and done a lot of crap in my days so here's what can happen. ADD and AD HD medication is basically amphetamines, or salts, they dehydrate and can do a number of things to ya. weed....well u know what weed is and same thing with alcohol.

The medication your taking is a stimulate and shouldn't be taking with other drugs or alcohol due to severe cardiovascular problems. You wouldn't want to die form Arrhythmia trust me haha. So if your going to smoke or drink do not and i repeat DO NOT take your add medication tht day. If you have ADD i suggest being prescribed to medical weed if u want to smoke because its actually benefits you in a lot of ways unlike add medication which is basiclaly strung out meth. Right now im on 80mg of Adderall and do not have AD HD so im thinkin pretty clearly here, Ive studied Pharmacology and have numerous sources to back up my proclaim above. If you have any other questions about any drugs or substances you are taking u can contact me on my email.
