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.
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.
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.

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.
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.

Has your daughter tried a non-stimulant medication such as Straterra (atomoxetine)?
Throughout my life I have been taking a medication called Atomoxetine for the treatment of ADHD. One of the side effects of this medication was that it would always cause my penis and scrotum to retract as if they were extremely cold all the time throughout the day - causing me to have to take hot or warm baths to temporarily solve this.

In my and others experience, the best withdrawal method is a process of cutting back your dosage over time. Going into a rehab unit is pure hell. And anyway you are not an addict. Take it slow friend. In my humble opinion the vicodin you may want to stay on the longest. Percs make me feel depressed. Vicodin does not do that. I am a pain patient. This may sound counter intuitive but oxycontin acts longer with getting a less addictive buzz or high like one does on vikes(hydrocodone).
I have been taking vicodin and tramadol for over 15 years and really want to stop taking them because they are ruining my life. But the pain from withdrawal is unbearable. I am at my wits end n don't know how to ease the withdrawal symptoms. Any ideas?
will i experience withdrawal symptoms? i know that no one can say for sure, but there must be someone out there who can speak to this situation that i am in. i am frightened, or more appropriately, i have a sense of dread about having to go through withdrawal on top of all of the other health problems that i have right now. in may of last year i was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and in feb of this year i was diagnosed with crohn's.
I am trying to ween off I am down to 1/2 in morning 1/2 at night. I am feeling withdrawal symptoms already is it going to get worse once I stop? I am taking a lot of vitamin and trying the thomas recipe but I feel terrible and I have to work.
I think the typical withdrawal is 4-5 days of the intense phsyical symptoms. I do not know about methadone. Try wrapping your legs in ace bandage for the rls. It helped me.
Can anyone tell me how long the withdrawal symptoms last when coming off Oxycontin? I've been taking 300mg a day for the last four years because of spinal disease. I've now decided I'd rather suffer the pain than deal with this drug anymore. I no longer have any interest in anything and spend most of my days watching TV. After doing my research, I've decided it's the drug from hell and I really need to stop.
I hope someone can help me. I have been doing the Ashton Manual withdrawal method to come off of Klonopin. I am done with the Klonopin but now have to wean off the Valium. Everyday is pure agony. When will this end? I have been off of Klonopin for 2 months now and have been doing the withdrawal for 8 months and it is NOT getting better, only worse. I am now on 10 mg of Valium in the morning and 4 mg at night cutting 1 mg a week. I cannot see this getting any better.
Could be withdrawal, but also during the night our blood sugar changes as we sleep so maybe get it checked. Good luck!
