Hello! Does anyone use Strattera? I'll be glad to hear your reviews.

Strattera. Adhd

[AyDeeDee]

Yes.

Taking 40mg twice daily (along with 2mg intuniv).

Helps me mainly with self control, focus, and anxiety.

It's not as strong as the stimulants, so when I need a boost I take a little adderall.

At the beginning it made me feel very nauseous, sleepy and I had some difficulty urinating.

After about a month of taking it I was still feeling nauseous, so my doctor split it into 2 doses and told me to eat it after a meal, and that helped.

It took me a while to get used to taking strattera, but as of now I am happy with this treatment.

I hope this helped!

I took it for 8 months, 4 of those months with a low dose prozac. It seemed to help initially but I was still chronically exhausted everyday. I switched to Vyvanse which worked much better for all my symptoms. Now I do a low dose of adderall booster also in the afternoons and I'm just finally feeling like I'm at a sustainable good place. It took me 3 years to get the meds and dosage right but I'm so glad I stuck out it because our quality of life matters. I hope that you are able to find the right meds for you too.

Yeah I took stratteta for 2 1/2 months. First week wasn’t the best because my body was getting used to it. After the first week I was good but didn’t have any energy to do stuff. I could think clearly most of the time but honestly it didn’t make my day efficient at all. I was sluggish, sleepy, groggy, and kinda in a haze. But like I said, my adhd overdrive mind was calmed and I could think clearly as long as I wasn’t pressured by timelines or other things. I decided to get off it because it had to many cons for me. But everyone reacts differently to medication and you might be perfectly fine on it! Talk to a dr and give it a shot if you’re against stimulating medication or haven’t tried it yet!
