Strattera

Liver damage did not emerge as a Strattera side effect during short-term Strattera clinical trials of 6,000 patients. However, Straterra has now been on the market for several years. The longer time and larger pool of people taking the drug allowed a Strattera liver damage side effect to present itself in a small number of people taking Strattera.

The new package warning indicates that Strattera should be discontinued in patients who developed jaundice (yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes) or laboratory evidence of liver damage.

Signs and symptoms of liver damage include:

_ Itchy skin

_ Jaundice

_ Dark urine

_ Abdominal tenderness on the upper right side

_ Unexplained "flu-like" symptoms

My doctor specifically told me to take it at night because it is a long-acting medicine. It needs to be a constant time though.

there are a lot of medication options. And something else to consider is that narcoleptics often suffer from additional issues like: restless legs syndrome, apnea, and cataplexy, which may require their own medications. I have been diagnosed with narcolepsy for over 12 years and in that time i have taken ritalin: This did keep me awake but i had to take it 3 times a day, and I wasn't great about taking them at the exact right times. And if i didn't take them at the exact time i was supposed to, i would really feel a "crash". I decided that the ups and downs were to extreme. But many people take it and it works for them. I think it's important to learn about the options and then try one and see how it works for YOU. Everyone responds differently. Dexedrine: this worked well to keep me awake but I occasionally felt like i was buzzing and I didn't like the research that i was reading about the affects that amphetimenes can have on your body. So i looked for an alternative. Provigil: much better! This is great for me, it is not an amphetimine and I think it does a much better job of keeping me awake and stablized. I currently take a generic version that is 100% fine. Unfortunately the greedy drug manufacturing companies in the US have actually paid generic drug manufacturers NOT to make a generic of provigil, so i have to order it from Canada. The price is much better and the quality is the same, they mail the pills to me, and the customer service is fantastic.

No, it should not.

It should cause you to be more focused.

Keep in mind that Strattera has been shown to cause depression and suicidal thoughts in children.

Answer:

I am not entirely sure as to the definite effects of taking both of these two drugs.

However, I am not sure what the reason it is you are asking a question such as this since your doctor should've informed you on such.

But if that is not the case, I can tell you this, Risperdal is used mainly for the treatment of schizophrenia. I don't know exactly the reason in which you are taking both of these medications. But if you are schizophrenic, I wouldn't recommend taking Strattera unless of course the benefits overweigh the risks. Now, Risperdal is a powerful anti-psychotic, and works on two neurotransmitters in the brain (mostly dopamine but also serotonin) it does not work on the nuerotransmitters transporters that Strattera affects which are norepinephrines transporters. So I highly doubt taking both will kill you, however this can ultimately depend on the amount of each drug you are taking. If you are taking an appropriate dosage of each I wouldn't see this as anything life-threatening. But, Risperdal is also helpful for depression, so if that is why you're taking Strattera I don't see a point. Basically it is up to you to decide if you want to continue taking both of these drugs, but I don't see it necessary. It would be nice to know why you are taking both drugs in the first place, since they are entirely different medications. :) hope this helps*******

It will hit you much faster and harder, but it's effect only last a fraction of the time.

Orally ingesting it, effects usually last 3-6 hours. Snorting may only last 2-3.

Also depends on your tolerance though.

If your looking for a more intense "speedier" high, Snort it.

But if your looking for the longer more detailed high, Ingest it.

Viagra works by regulating blood flow, making the penis erect for longer.

Marijuana slows down the blood circulation in your body, but makes your heart beat faster as the brain attempts to combat the effects of the drug.

Mixing these will cause an irregular blood circulation that can cause a heart attack or stroke.

I don't think your partner will be pleased with you dropping dead on top of her.

Answer: It was patented in 1954 by Novartis International.

The risks are the same as for everyone. 40 mg of Strattera is not a large dose; for people who weigh more than 70 kg (about 150 pounds), it is the usual starting dose (and we usually increase the dosage from there). In teens, though, the medication does have a new warning about increase feelings of suicide, especially when starting it or changing the dose; your physician hopefully warned you about this and mentioned how to get help if you do start feeling this way. I have prescribed lots of Strattera to teens and find that most people do not have side effects. A few have mentioned some nausea, which is usually resolved by having them take the medicine with food in the morning. Taking it at night has seemed to lead to some sleep disturbance in some as well. The biggest problem some people have with Strattera is it not relieving their ADHD symtpoms; if this is the case, the medicine either should be increased up to the maximum dose or switched to another medication--or the diagnosis should be re-examined. Talk to your physician if you have any concerns about Strattera or any other medications you may be on. Hope this helps! Dr. B.

Yes, depression and suicidal thoughts are side effects of Strattera. This website can give you more information on the drug, how it works and side effects. If you are feeling depressed please see your doctor as soon as possible.

IF Strattera is prescribed properly for ADHD symptoms, then yes, it may help improve focus and attention thereby improving performance in sports.

Using it without the ADHD diagnosis will not improve performance.

yes

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.

Valium and other benzodiazapines are easily detected in urine.

Strattera comes in the following oral capsule dosages: 10, 18, 25, 40, 60, 80, and 100 mg. The dosage depends on your individual circumstances.

Yes, Cephalexin and Strattera can be taken together. Cephalexin is just an antibiotic and will have no effect on the Strattera.

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 :]

As an adult woman, I've had amazing results with it and very few side effects. Mostly it helps me with organizational skills and sequential thinking (normally, I'm all over the place). It also tends to help with my temper. While I wouldn't say I have a horrible temper normally, I do tend to be much more even when I'm taking Strattera. Lastly, I notice an improvement with is my ability to act in a professional manner. Here, I notice the most dramatic improvement and quite frankly, I've become afraid to go without. It's hard to be more specific without knowing me. Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: It really depends on the person, though, and how their body reacts to it (or any medication for that matter - each person is different). You don't necessarily "feel" Strattera working because it does not give the same energy or "high" like the stimulants such as Ritalin do, but you will "know" if it is working because you'll notice the improvements in yourself. If you start taking Strattera, be patient with it. It can take up to a month to start seeing results and it can take a couple of weeks for your body to adjust to the initial side effects (which can include nausea and fatigue).

I am 35 and recently diagnosed with ADHD. If I could go back in time, I would want my ADHD diagnosed when I was a child and would want Strattera to be available then. Why? Because it has made THAT big of a difference for me in my life. I'm still me, but I'm a much better, much more focused me.

Levothyroxine is a thyroid replacement medication.

Gabapentin is used as an anti-seizure medication, also for migraines, also for neuropathy and other pain disorders, also as a mood stabilizer.

Yes, you can take them together. There is no known interaction between them. If you are concerned, ask your doctor to make sure.

Not an immediate high, but yes you can get high off of it. But he careful, it Burns like hell and it will mess up your brain.

Absolutely!! I knew my baby was ADHD from when he was in my womb already.

They can only make an official diagnosis later but the mother always knows.

Strattera is a drug and should only be prescribed by a qualified medical practitioner (a doctor). The doctor will tell you how to take it.

We do not know what you mean by "injek", this is not an English word so we can not answer your question.
