As always, the best policy is to consult a diving medicine specialist. There are always three things to consider regarding diving on medication:
1) The underlying condition.
2) The medication (effects and side effects).
3) The effects of pressure on physiological processes.
Unfortunately, we still know almost nothing about how factors 2 and 3 interact, which is why doctors always tend to err on the side of caution.
