Has anyone got this combination and have they ever tried a dopamine agonist like amphetamine-derivative type drugs?

Dopamine antagonists are the treatment for tics so I was wondering if ADHD meds in fact make tics worse....

I've seen mixed reviews in medical journals about this topic. Looking for personal experiences/anecdotes.
