I find amphetamines make me tired where as methylphenidate stimulated me more. I'm on amphetamines right now. Is it okay to drink a bit of coffee to counter act the sleepiness of the amphetamines?
Dextroamphetamine and caffeine?

It looks as if a moderate amount of caffeine would not interact with these drugs, but as stated it's always safer to ask your doctor or pharmacist.
