Hi,
I started taking strattera last Saturday and I've had a great week. I started off on 40mg a day and this is the first medication I've been on.

I posted in another thread that I am 6' 1" and 190lbs but I weighed myself yesterday and I was shocked to see that I've slipped to 167lbs in the last 2 or three months. So yeah, my weight is 167lbs.

When I took my first capsule last week I noticed a huge change in about 30 or 40mins. ie. It started working straight away.

Everywear I read on the net it say's it takes a few days to start working but I noticed it immeditately. What does this say about me?

Anybody the same. I'm just really curious to learn more about this oddity I have had.

I know that it's also really positive but....and that I should be happy it's working really well and I am. Doesn't stop the question constantly raising in my head though.

I suspect some people are simply more sensitive to medication that others.

I felt the same thing when I started taking Strattera a few years ago, it was instantaneous.

It's completely possible to get (good) results from your first dosages, from what my doc said. I also experienced a slight positive differences with my ADHD the first couple days. But, you're not going to get the full (good) effects of the medication immediately, because it takes time for the strattera to build up in your system.

It's always great to hear about good results from Strattera! I was happily surprised when I realized how well Strattera was/is working for me. I wasn't too optimistic at first.
