Desipramine & Strattera are probably fairly similar with one noteable exception being that Desipramine has a fairly long half life of 1 & 1/2 days while Strattera is pretty short at just 5 hours. If I had ADD/ADHD symptoms(which I don't) I would see if I could tolerate Desipramine or Nortriptyline & use one as the base & then add on an amphetamine or Ritalin.
Cheers,
Paul.
