Hello everyone. I have been on Strattera for a month and a half. I have noticed the calming effect and my thoughts no longer race. That's a relief. I didn't really relize that my thoughts did that untill I took Strattera. I just thought it was because I didn't yet have my morning coffee!
One question, the focus/concentrate part has not kicked in. I'm taking 80mg a day. 40 in the morning and 40 in the evening. Does the focus improve? Will going up to 100mg really make that much of a difference? I see my Dr next week and was thinking about asking for a low dose of Concerta or Ritalin XR. I've read in a couple other post that Strattera and a low dose of stimulants work well. Thanks for any replies.
