I'm now on day 4 of Strattera. I'm now on 80 mg's. I still feel I could cry for no reason at any minute. I have the " typical side effects" dry eyes, dry mouth. I have been really lethargic the past couple of days. I'm still waiting to feel the benefits, I know its still a little early, but I've noticed nothing. I'm also wondering why my pdoc took me off my lexapro. She said she wanted to see what med is doing what. Since I have problems with depression shouldn't I still be taking something. She also took me off Klonopin, which I have been on for quite a while to control my severe aggitation that I get. I was taking .5 mg's everyday. I'm wondering if I should have been tapered off it a little, instead of quitting cold turkey. So now, I'm just on the Strattera, thats it. Yes, I can do w/o the klonopin, but still wonder if its normal that I was taken off my A/D. Any ideas, suggestions?
