Anyone on this combination? I am on 40mg of both after unsucessful trials on each of them by themselves.
I have only been off the Strattera for 2 weeks. How long does it take to start working again?
I sure hope this combination works. My next try is Adderall.
Thankfully I am covered by the military so I have no med costs. I don't know how you all do it otherwise.
Thanks

Just a update. I am now going to 72mg of Concerta only. Strattera does horrible things to my anger levels and my family was really suffering from it.
The experiment continues.
I am taking Concerta 72mg for about 10 days now;
I start to notice that the 54mg gave me better results than 72mg,
I was able to focus for a litle be(not that much, but was something)...
I am going see my Dr. on Friday and I think I am going asking him to combine
the 54mg with other medication;
he said to me few days ago that Concerta cannot be
combine with Aderall; what your Dr. said?
Thank you!!!
Sorry about my English!!!:)

Interesting. You are not the first person who has said that they preferred the 54 over the 72. The 72 is intense and although I don't have any problem side effects I am now thinking about perhaps trying just the 54 and seeing if that works but doesn't feel so intense.
I have to call my Dr on Monday with how I am feeling. I will ask him if I can try the 54 for a few days to see. We haven't broached the subject of Aderall yet so I don't know if it can be combined or not.
The experiment continues.
This is kinda how it goes. It can take many months sometimes to get the meds right. Hang in there though, it really is worth it when you finally get it right.

That's my mix and it kicks ***** for me.
