Depending on the dosage of each, you will most likely see an increase in heart rate, dizziness when titrating/changing dosages, mild insomnia, and a loss in sexual performance for males (most females have shown an increase in libido with Strattera). The focalin will also create a little bit of restlessness and anxiety. Do not forget that it is also a diuretic and combining it with strattera will make you a flatulent Freddy at times. Also look out for the expiration dates on both of those medications. Focalin is expensive for a lot of mom and pop pharmacies, so they may accidentally give you an expired batch (happened to me, twice). Also be sure to eat a diet high in protein (both meds are highly protein bound!)

Best medicine for some with adhd and a fast metabolism and Strattera does not work?
I know focalin would not work because it has to stay in your system for a little while to see the good effects (side effects are usually present immediately). I have high metabolism and adderall IR and strattera didn't work for me either.

When I was at the doctor he told me that I have anxiety and ADHD and he sead that I must go on Strattera it worked but it was to expensive to go on it for a year can Strattera be given as chronic?
Sure, most drugs can be prescribed for extended periods of time. Certainly antidepressants (Strattera is a failed antidepressant) are prescribed as such. No studies have examined the long-term effects of Strattera, and therefore it is not recommended that Strattera be used in the long-term. In fact, the Strattera drug information specifically states,"Strattera is not for long-term use." Be careful with drugs like Strattera (antidepressants in general): their specific effects on the brain and their long-term effects are not well-known. These drugs can permanently alter your brain chemistry and cause a variety of secondary effects (for which you'll be prescribed more medications). Of course, this is just my opinion, and it is based on anecdotal evidence. Be cautious.
Can either taking or withdrawing from Strattera cause delusional thinking or strange feelings with motion?
Absolutely, terrible mood swings, irritability and withdrawal has caused anger and rage. If you see these symptoms, please have your physician notify the FDA of advser effects. It will help others make decisions on whether to prescribe or take Strattera
What are the side effects after going off of Strattera?
My 11 year old daughter had been taking Strattera for a little more than 3 years. About 5 weeks ago she decided on her own, without discussing it with her father and I, to stop cold turkey taking her meds. She was taking 60mg of Strattera and a melatonin every night before bed. She was taking it at night because of the stomach aches. they were just to much to handle during the morning at school. After a few weeks of not taking the meds she confided in my Mother that she was not taking the Strattera anymore. I couldn't really tell any major differences. The only big difference was her insatiable appetite In the about 5 or 6 weeks she has been off the Strattera(taking it for ADHD) she has gained 10lbs. She says she is now sleeping through the night. Falling asleep quite easily too. It used to take her more than an hour even with the Melatonin.

The medical dosage is 20-40mg of dexmethylphenidate a day. If you've never taken Focalin, don't take more then 20 milligrams.
