As a parent of an ADHD child and a psychiatrist I would say that most children should not be taken off of the ADHD treatment for the summer. There are studies showing that children need to be able to focus to be able to attend to facial expressions and learn to understand how their behavior or choices impact other children. Untreated children, especially boys, may not learn appropriate social behavior. As Strattera cannot be used "as needed" the way stimulant can, it would have to be restarted weeks before school starts anyway.

Can I buy Strattera online without a prescription?

Atomoxetine (Strattera) should not be mixed with other SNRI (Selective Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor) medications. It should also not be combined SSRI's such as Fluoextine. You should not take Straterra with medications such as Albuterol before contacting your Primary care physician as the combination of Atomoxetine can increase heart rates (fibrillation) and blood pressure. However, Strattera can be taken with over-the-counter medication that has no effect on heart rate or blood pressure. You should avoid decongestant or some natural products without the approbation of your doctor.
