Yes and no. Creatine has been studied for its ability to increase brain power. Most studies have shown modest improvement short term.
No studies have been conducted long term. There have been seizures attributed to the combination of creatine and stimulants, so there is some risk involved.
I personally know a guy who had a seizure within two days of adding creating to dexedrine, so it is a serious consideration.
On another note, creatine can make you more irritable. So combining it with a stimulant may exasperate this.
I personally have noticed a benefit from creatine if I take it within 24 hours of an exam. I notice generally a little more endurance.
If I take it for more than a few days at a time, I get really depressed and irritable.
Just my 2 cents.
