Avatar m tn Hey, I've just been diagnosed with ADHD and I'll be taking Atomoxetine. It's the non - stimulant type, I was thinking the stimulant form of medication would suit me better with such as an Amphetamine based one. I was a user on speed awhile ago and when I was on I felt established, in control, I could concentrate and express my inteligence.
Avatar m tn Classified as a norepinephrine (noradrenaline) reuptake inhibitor, atomoxetine is approved for use in children, adolescents, and adults. However, its efficacy has not been studied in children under six years old. Its advantage over stimulants for the treatment of ADHD is that it has less abuse potential than stimulants,[2][3] is not scheduled as a controlled substance and has proven in clinical trials to offer 24-hour coverage of symptoms associated with ADHD in adults and children.

Avatar m tn Hi guys, I hope someone is able to help me with this… I am currently taking Atomoxetine – a medication used to treat ADHD in adults. I take 40mg once daily in the morning and it really helps me to concentrate better and function the way I need to etc… One of the main issues I have is the effect it has on my penis and testicles.
Avatar f tn ve had more jobs than my age and have been put on medications for depression and even biopolar disorder, when being A.D.D. was the real problem. I only figured out that I was A.D.D. because my friend gave me an adderall because I was super exhausted and she said it would wake me up (I don't usually take other peoples medication). The adderall had the complete opposite affect and I was amazed how calm I felt.
Avatar m tn * Nonstimulant medication, such as the antidepressant bupropion (Wellbutrin and generic) or atomoxetine (Strattera), which is not available as a generic.
Avatar n tn Hi. There is no current study that prohibits Atomoxetine (Strattera) users to take creatine supplements. However, caution should be made when taking supplements, since both drugs can alter kidney function and cause urinary symptoms (e.g. stones, dysuria) when not taken properly. I suggest that you ask your doctor first if these are safe for you to use. Thanks for asking.

20003388 tn?1515166040 Did you give the drugs some time to see if this was just a start-up side effect rather than a lasting one? But sometimes we just can't take certain meds and there might never be any way to know why. If it's a mild reaction, and you seem to not be getting what you need from other meds, maybe it's worth the trouble -- they all have some side effects even when we don't notice them.
Avatar n tn I have a 16 year old daughter who is a Junior in high school diagnosed with ADHD (Attention type) in elementary school and OCD and processing issues at the end of Middle School. She has tried every imaginable medication for both and due to adverse side effects ranging from incapacitating fatigue to personality changes she vehemently refuses to take any medication. And to be honest, I don't blame her.
Avatar m tn 7 Shortly after this problem began to get better, I started getting pain in my right testicle, and despite the fact that every single scan and test has come back completely clear for the right side, my testicle on the right appears smaller and less heavy than it used to be.

Avatar n tn I was wondering where the best place for me would be to find a complete list of medicines I should stay away from with Long QT syndrome. I have a list but it is over 5 years old, and I am in need of a new one! Thank You!
Avatar n tn My son is 6 yrs old weighs 40 lbs and is 3'10". His twin brother is 47.5 lbs and 4' tall (they only weighed 4 ozs and 1/4 inch apart at birth). They are both very active and seem healthy except the youngest seems underweight. His Dr has mentioned it several times but thinks he may just equal out when he gets older. Both boys eat very healthy and prefer fruits and veggies over more fattening meat. Should I put him on a weight gain diet or just let it go?
Avatar n tn Many primary care providers treat symptoms of ADHD with stimulants or alternatives such as Atomoxetine (Strattera). Often, physicians and psychiatrists will prescribe stimulants to treat symptoms after they conduct a diagnostic interview with you and/or perform an examination to rule-out other factors that could be creating these symptoms (such as a mood disorder or thyroid problem). Stimulants are generally considered to be very safe, though side effects can be unpleasant.
