Strattera was the first medication I was prescribed after being diagnosed. At first, it worked great. My mind was clear for the first time ever and able to focus! As time went on, it became less effective. Didn’t have many side effects that I can remember. Main one was dry mouth.
I tried it again a few years ago after Adderall started making me sick, but it didn’t work at all sadly. Hopefully it will for you though!
I'm on day 2 and feeling like a super human 🧠Not only can I focus, but I want to engage. It's sooooo weird. Sorry to hear that it eventually stopped being effective for you 🙁
