I'm on Strattera. I'm experiencing hot flashes.
However, I'm also 51 and it's probably attributable to menopause. Nevertheless, I thought I'd Google strattera/hot flashes to see if there was a pattern.
I've been on 25 mg of Strattera for about a month now and I have noticed a huge increase in the number of hot flashes I have (I'm 33). I also have noticed that I feel sweaty most of the time on the back of my neck and forehead. When I'm at the gym or doing some kind of physical activity, I seem to produce more sweat than I have in the past.
I have been taking 25MG of strattera for 6 days now and I have had hot flashes all of those days and my hands and feet are very cold. Usually after I after my lunch hour I am freezing but warm up after I start working again.
Yes, I've definitely experienced them since on the Strattera. Luckily they've gone away after about a year of use. However, they have been replaced by cold legs/feet.

∙ 18y agoYes, Strattera can cause hot flashes and night sweats. Knowing that I had a similar problem with Welbutrin, my MD graduated my dose of Strattera over the course of six weeks, to reach the 100mg that I am on now. I only had one night sweat at the 3rd week, because my body was allowed to slowly adjust to the medication.
