strattera

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 Well, Strattera is "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.
Avatar n tn - Absorption, oral: time to peak concentration 7h - Elimination half-life = 12 h (It says also that in general it can be administered once daily because it has a 24 h effect.Why?) - Can you give another example to clarify it better please? - When it says divide in 2 doses , does it mean only in the morning and dinner? 3 doses (morning-lunch-dinner)? Thank you for taking the time to answer!!
Avatar f tn Hello everyone. I'm new to this website and usually never post anything on the internet bit I have got to a place where I need some advice. I was diagnosed with ADHD 9/9 in March this year by a phsyciatrist at a harley street in London(remotley) I tried stimulants dextroamphetamine and listamphetamin but they didn't agree with me. I was then prescribed atomoxetine. I took these for 4 weeks- start with 10mg then 20mg then 40mg and called my harley phsyciatrist as I was running out.

Avatar f tn 0) after being on a dug trail for Atomoxetine, (last year, at age 45 yrs) by an A.D.H.D. specalist team in Northampton England. Aparently many medical teams around the world dont belive a.d.h.d goes into adulthood, belive me it does! I have it extreamly badly, and after a disastor with Rittaline im now on Strattera (atomoxetine, which is not yet licenced in u.k.) is there any other adults out there that have been, like me, misdiagnosed for years because . .. when I was a child a.d.h.
Avatar m tn * Nonstimulant medication, such as the antidepressant bupropion (Wellbutrin and generic) or atomoxetine (Strattera), which is not available as a generic.
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 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.
Avatar m tn Hi guys, Basically to start with, I already have a low sperm count caused by epididymitis. I went for a fertility test and got the following results: Appearance: Normal Liquification: Abnormal Viscosity: Abnormal pH: 8.0 Volume: 0.5 mL Motility (Progressive): 28.50% Motility (Non-Progressive): 62.00% Motility (Immotile): 28.50% Vitality Vital: 37.65% Vitality Dead: 62.35% Morphology: Normal - 3.40% Sperm Concentration 24.3 Million per mL Total Sperm Count: 12.
Avatar m tn I can't help out on the pharmacokinetics, but your reasoning is sound: it doesn't make sense to dose so that the drug runs out. I'd query Schering-Plough as well as your hepatologist, if I were you. Please give me a heads-up if you solve the riddle.
Avatar n tn Has your daughter tried a non-stimulant medication such as Straterra (atomoxetine)?

20003388 tn?1515166040 Every time I try a medication that has a reuptake effect on norepeneprhine I get this mild burning sensation on the left side of my chest. So far I have had this happen with Atomoxetine, Venlafaxine, Bupropion and now Nortrypytiline. It isn't anxiety, a panic attack or heartburn, just a dull, moderately uncomfortable, burning sensation. I'm fine with all the SSRI's and medications like Rexulti. It's just the ones that affect NE.
Avatar m tn Hepatic Impairment In volunteers with hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class A and B), sildenafil clearance was reduced, resulting in higher plasma exposure of sildenafil (47% for Cmax and 85% for AUC). The pharmacokinetics of sildenafil in patients with severely impaired hepatic function (Child-Pugh Class C) have not been studied. A starting dose of 25 mg should be considered in patients with any degree of hepatic impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
Avatar f tn Folic acid supplementation in folate-deficient patients with epilepsy changes the pharmacokinetics of phenytoin, usually leading to lower serum phenytoin concentrations and possible seizure breakthrough..." It however says that initiation of Folic acid and phenytoin together is beneficial. Since you can't go back and start all over again, you can take a small dose. It has been observed that as los as 1mg dose can perturb phenytoin’s levels, You may take doses lower than 1mg/day.

Avatar m tn The Phase 1 trial was designed to characterize the safety profile of ARC-520 across a range of doses and evaluate pharmacokinetics. It is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single dose-escalation, first-in-human study of ARC-520 administered intravenously to healthy adult volunteers. All subjects have been dosed and received either placebo or ARC-520 in doses ranging from 0.01 mg/kg to 2 mg/kg.
Avatar f tn i believe in the pre-clinical trials with healthy volunteers, researchers used Carbon14 to gauge the half-life and paths of elimination during pharmacokinetics studies. it is a common practice. perhaps that is what you are thinking about?
29837 tn?1414534648 The pharmacokinetics of ledipasvir were studied with a single dose of 90 mg ledipasvir in HCV negative subjects with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class C). Ledipasvir plasma exposure (AUC0-inf) was similar in subjects with severe hepatic impairment and control subjects with normal hepatic function. Population pharmacokinetics analysis in HCV-infected subjects indicated that cirrhosis had no clinically relevant effect on the exposure of ledipasvir [see Use in Specific Populations (8.
808353 tn?1238293321 The combination of two potent direct-acting antivirals (DAAs), targeting two distinct viral enzymes, may offer advantages over single DAA strategies by enhancing potency, reducing the emergence of drug resistance, and possibly eliminating the need for PEG-IFN +/- ribavirin. The combination of R7128/R7227 offers the potential for a highly potent regimen with a high genetic barrier to resistance. Methods: INFORM-1 is a randomized, double-blind, ascending dose Phase I trial.
Avatar m tn Nitazoxanide, brand name alinia, had also excellent ed50 results in an in vitro inhibition study, just as good as lamuvidine, so this sounded fascinating for a possible combination towards true synergism, to finally suppress virion production to a level so low that the silent daily reinfection will be reduced, allowing a slow net clearance of infected cells with a resulting drop in surface antigen.
