> I have just started to take Strattera to treat ADD (No hyper) and reading through these messages I have become disheartened to hear that the effects wear off after a few months. How common is this? I am desperately looking for an alternative to amphetamines or other stimulants due to their addictive nature and high/lows. If these effects do wear off, is Wellbutrin the next thing I should go for? Thanks
Don't jump to conclusions based on the reports of a handful of people. Strattera is too new a drug for reliable judgments to be made about its long-term efficacy. But based on what is known about its pharmacology there is no reason to think that it has any more poop-out potential than other classes of drugs.
