Strattera: 4 years later

Posted by minimal on May 7, 2006, at 11:22:41

Now that Strattera has been around for several years, I am looking for updated opinions about the efficacy of this Rx.

I currently take prozac 10 mgs and adderall 10-15 mgs for major depression, GAD, and strong ADD symptoms. I really want to take a break from these meds for 3-4 months and I've been thinking about trying strattera.

I am looking for any broad opinions but also wondering if anyone has switched to Strattera to replace an AD (especially SSRI) and stimulant at the same time. If so, how well did it cover both symptoms? If I do switch, I could stay on a small dose of Prozac but I am concerned about negative effects on liver function.

If I did switch to replace both the AD and stim at once, I wonder if Strattera would effectively cover/mitigate withdrawal symptoms of both?

Also, did you notice that is started working pretty quickly?

How does it compare to Wellbutrin?

Also wonder how Strattera would interact with omega 3's, b vitamins and the occasional social alcohol consumption.

Any input welcome

thanks,
-Mini
