I had high hopes for this medication.
I have adult ADHD and have been working with my Doctor to find a proper combination of medications to help manage my symptoms. My Doctor prescribed to me, Strattera starting off at a real low dose then titrated me up to 80 mg over an 8 week period. It seemed to be working well for me. Focus and anxiety were improved. When my dosage was increased to 80 mg, my blood pressure went way up and I broke out in a full body rash. I was immediately taken off and the side effects went away. I had no problem quitting cold turkey which was great. One side effect that I did not mind was the weight loss. Aside from the bad reaction I had that caused me to discontinue the medication, dry mouth was bad. I could not talk for thirty seconds without my mouth going bone dry.
