Hi,
It is not safe to take these medications together. Taking these medicines together can cause arrhythmia (abnormal irregular heart beats) which can be dangerous. He may need a dose adjustments to take both medications together or an alternate effective but a safer medication to treat tics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
