I've recently been takin Strattera in the morning and Adderall XR in the afternoon and really seems to work well together. The Strattera calms me down and the Adderall helps me focus and get on with my day?

Anyone else on this combo?

Yes, I am, but I'm very new to Strattera (1.5 weeks in) and at only 25mg/day so I don't really think I'm being affected by it yet. The reason I'm switching is because the adderall has become less effective for me, particularly with regard to duration.. I'm really hoping for a 24 hour solution here.

What does of strattera are you on? And adderall? Like I said, I'm at 25mg Strattera, but my Adderall XR dose is 50mg per day (total).

It was completely uneffective after three months and turned me into a zombie. I discontinued asap.

Cmil,

I'm on 10 mg of Strattera in the morning and 5 mg of Adderall XR around 1 pm. It seems to be working well for me. I'll know more in a few weeks.

I've been taking Strattera for about 16 months now. I'm up to 80 mg a day, a greater dose did not have a greater effect. I tried mixing in Ritalin and focalin, but they made me cranky. They also sped my brain up, counteracting the positive effect of the Strattera. I've been taking 5 mg Adderall XR for a few weeks. It does help me focus more. The Strattera many slows down my brain, in a good way. I'm going to slowly increase the Aderall dose. I am a little sesitive to stimulants. Quit caffeine a few months ago.
