Actually, my 8 year old son has ADHD. He has tried Dexedrine, Adderall XR, and regular. Bad effects from them. He is now on Ritalin. The Ritalin is working really good for him right now. Thats the key words, right now!!!!
His pdoc did mention Desoxyn, if the Ritalin doesn't work, or stops working. That was before Strattera was out though. If the Ritalin stops working, we might ask to try him on the Strattera first (hoping he doesn't end up with an allergic reaction from it like I did). But he did mention Desoxyn. I was kind of surprised, since I hadn't really heard anyone who was taking it. His pdoc said he writes several scripts for it. So, I guess that answers your question somewhat. His pdoc might be one of few who do though.
