Hi. Did you know that Strattera is also available in 10mg capsules? Perhaps your doctor could prescribe those instead and increase the dose very, very slowly over many days. Also, don't take it too close to bedtime. This medication is not technically a stimulant. It is more like the antidepressants, and you probably won't feel better for quite a while. That's the way most psychotropic medicines are. Except for the stimulants (amphetamines and ritalin) and a few other meds, most take at least a few weeks at a sufficient dosage to have a positive effect.
