In reply to Strattera withdrawal?, posted by P.Gigglebrain on October 10, 2003, at 21:06:45
I don't know about Strattera, but I did have similar problems with Effexor, which also has a norepinephrine-reuptake inhibition component. If I forgot to take it for a few days, I would get lightening shocks in my scalp and get really hateful and cranky.
Needless to say, I had a lot of trouble stopping it. I weaned my self down to 1/2 of a 37.5 capsule (actually poured half the little beads down the drain) and still had some withdraw symptoms.
