My son has just been diagnosed with ADD not ADHD. We are alittle concerned that the diagnosis is quick to judge. Also alittle concerned about taking the Strattera. Has anyone been on the meds for awhile? ↓

my 10 yr old son has been diagnosed for abt 4 yrs (adhd).he has been using strattera for abt a year now,i find out of all of the medications that we have tryed strattera has been the best so far with the least side affects.as long as he never takes it on a empty stomach,as this can cause nausia and vomiting,and its never a great thing to take a day or two off for any reason,as it can take a while to get back into the system.hope this helps a little,good luck. ↑
