Does this mean we can get cheap Strattera from India now?

I haven't seen pricing yet, but that would be an interesting development if Tomexetine in India was sold cheaper than Strattera in the United States.

I realize the article is lacking in details, but Effexor's been around for even longer than Straterra, and essentially, if my understanding is correct, is also a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. I take it for Depression, but it has never helped with my AD/HD... I guess it's always good to have options for those who can't take stimulants, but this kind of news, in addition to the article about the school official who stole kids' pills (because he was "addicted") just seems to intensify the misperceptions and stigma surrounding stimulants.

arrrrghhh :mad:
