Medication
He was put on
Strattera
about mid- September this year. Is there anyone whose child is using the same med ? When can I start to look for the effects to kick on? With the stimulants the effects were seen quite early but the
Strattera
seems like it's taking a long time.

Qelbree
I have tried Ritalin, Adderall and
Strattera
. Ritalin gave me bad mood swings, Adderall made my heart race and increase irritation and Stattera made me super sleepy. I am very sensitive to medication and so my doctor opted to try me on this new non-stimulant.

Brain Dumping Explained
Strattera
, the med I take for my ADHD, warns us that insomnia can be a side effect of the med. However, I find that if my head is clear, I sleep better than if I try to lay down and just try to crash out. Also, by writing down the things I need to do, I don’t forget anything.

Atomoxetine (Strattera) shortage
My pharmacy here in New Zealand has no supply for the last several weeks. Do we have any idea if there is an issue with supply? Any supply issues elsewhere?

Introductions
I got on Medicaid insurance in September this year, got lucky and was paired with a therapist relatively quickly, was able to get a diagnosis, and started
Strattera
in early October.

Oh! Me too...ugh
I'm struggling to accept how my brain differences are impacting my life, but I've started a medication regimen recently (
Strattera
) and I'm hoping the next few weeks will be marked by significant improvement. (I'm supposed to be working as I type this lol).

Can I Reduce The Symptoms of ADHD Taking These Supplements?
Because of that, I am afraid of using
Strattera
and ADHD medications in general. I thought that maybe I can reduce the symptoms without side effects using supplements.

Depression and ADHD
Anyone on
strattera
and an SSRI? Was wondering if wellbutrin is better. Also wondering if guanfacine helps with impulse and is well tolerated. Lastly, has anyone done ECT for depression? Sometimes I think that is a last resort.

Any experience having a child on 2 different non stimulants (for example Strattera and Guanfacine) and how it controls ADHD
I am sure I have seen somewhere in this forum one of the parents saying that they have their child successfully treated with 2 non stimulants at the same time- Atomoxetine and Guanfacine given daily but I think different times of day. Please can partners who’s children are successfully on such combos

Feeling helpless & hopeless
Tried non-stimulant medication, didn't work, and made my ADHD and the associated depression worse, despite it being an anti-depressant treatment (
Strattera
/Atomoxatine). Went to adderall, seems to have a minimal effect.

Adderall versus Strattera?
Hi. Our eleven year old boy, who has ADHD and dyslexia, has done pretty well on 5 mg of Adderall daily. His focus has improved significantly, and he's less hyperactive. But his loss of appetite is serious enough that, at our doctor's recommendation, we're considering Straterra. The research suggests

My 9 Year old has Adhd and on autism Spectrum.
We are giving her Adhd medication
strattera
10mg, I think its causing her to scream a lot and depression, her doctor is insisting to increase the dosage to 20mg. I think it will cause her more depression and anxiety. I dont know whether to increase her dosage or change the pill all together.
