Best Answer

Strattera, like other "mood altering medications", effects the production and reuptake or norepinephrine in the brain. Other drugs effect this chemical as well (dilantin, which is for seizures, and antipsychotics like depikote). These drugs are all known to cause periodontal side effects. In other words, your gums may recede, change color, become inflamed, etc. Any doctor prescribing these drugs should be able to explain it's side effects. Your dentist, or more likely a periodontist, should know what drugs effect oral health.
