Adderall and Prozac together in my child

My child was recently diagnosed with ADHD and was put on Adderall(the generic). She is having panic attacks when she goes swimming so I called her psychiatrist and she wants me to start her on Prozac. Are there any side affects having them on both at the same time?

Do not take Prozac!  It blocks the pathway for adderall,  allows it to build up with bad results in a few months.  I can provide links to this info if you wish.
