Different medicines work differently with different children. I have tried Ritalin,concerta, adderol and none of those medications worked. But Stratera works fine with my child. Ask your doctor for alternative medicine for ADD because I went through 3 different kinds and finally one that works
It either works (as some say, i guess) or REALLY doesn't. I used Ritalin when i was younger...great.Strattera has really messed up my daily routine....or lack there of...I'm paranoid, tired...obnoxious.
No Strattera often makes people tired. I have tryed this medication before(in the 40mg doseing) and i was very tired i also do not have adhd.
Strattera is non addictive so there would be no withdrawal symptoms. I want to answer this question with a question. Why would you want to withdraw this medication for two days?
If Strattera works for your child, it may improve attentiveness and decrease hyperactivity/impulsivity Strattera can improve ADHD symptoms in children in the classroom setting as reported by teachers in a clinical study
Strattera is specifically for ADD. I wouldn't take the Welbutrin for the ADD. Right church, wrong pew.
A child who is on lithium needs to be monitored carefully before starting Strattera. This drug can trigger depression and my not be appropriate for someone who is taking a medication such as lithium.

Answer: If your child has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder they shouldn't take Strattera; ultimately this is your decision to make with your child's doctor. But keep in mind there is a Black Box Warning about Strattera: It states that you shouldn't take it if you have bipolar disorder or have symptoms such as psychosis or mania. It also says that you should stop taking Straterra if you notice your child has sudden changes in behavior such as irratibility and suicidal thoughts. Because of the way they(the FDA) put it in this warning I wouldn't say that taking both of those is completely harmless. hope this helps*****
I know that Strattera's most common side affect is dry mouth, which I experience. Creatine increases water retention, so I also wondering if this combination would increase the dry mouth.
Your main coon cat is so hyper because it is ticked off.
Yes, lyrica and strattera can be taken together. It is a rather speedy combo if I do say so, the lyrica can produce a "rolling" effect. And the strattera enhances that quite a bit. I should know, I'm doing it right now :]
absolutely i am 13 years old and my brother has tourette's syndrome his tics are very bad and he is able to take strattera. just look into it with the family pschychiatrist.
I would consider giving a child with adhd foods with less sugar in them. This would help to keep your child from being so hyper all of the time. This is the first step that you can take in creating a diet for your child.
