> Anyway, seeing as Reboxetine is very similar to Strattera, I was wondering if anyone had experience with this medication for AD(H)D. Has anyone tried Strattera and Reboxetine (at different times) and can compare the two?I have tried both drugs, but for depression, not ADD. They really don't feel like similar drugs to me. Strattera helped for a little while. Reboxetine made my depression much worse and produced much anxiety. I think the drugs are similar on paper if one only considers NE reuptake inhibition generally. They can be very different depending on where this inhibition occurs and the other properties that each of these drugs possess that are not taken into consideration - or even have yet to be discovered.
Desipramine might be a better choice.
