Unfortunately many conventional drugs for treating ADD/ ADHD are stimulants and will have a reverse effect on a patient with "overfocused ADD", or RBS (racing brain syndrome). Strattera is an alternative solution. It is an SSRI. You may get positive results from it alone, or in combination with another SSRI, although it is not very common. RBS ADD is a problem of the brain being over-stimulated. Medical marijuana remains the only single medication that provides an adequate solution for RBS.

Does Strattera help with OCD symptoms?

I'm not sure, but I've used Strattera for some months. I've OCD myself, and Strattera hasn't helped me with this problem. But neither have medications like Lexapro, Efexor or Zoloft. The only stuff I find helpful is bezos like Aprazolam or Diazepam. They just make me a little less conserned about things that i usely worry about. But in the end of the day, they're quite addictive. So you should be careful using them Sorry for my bed English.
