ADHD
"My son began taking Strattera about 3 - 4 years ago.  He had a bad reaction to Adderal, so the doctor tried Strattera as a non-stimulant.  He first started 18 mg once a day, no noticeable change. Then increased over time to 50 mg once a day.  He wasn&#039;t defiant, but just didn&#039;t (doesn&#039;t) care to do much of anything.  4-6 weeks ago he started having &quot;tics&quot;. Not putting the two together, last month his doctor increased to 60 mg a day and the tics have continued to get worse.   He&#039;s also been more depressed, having panic attacks, and anxiety.  He goes to school, but gets nothing done.  Went back to his doctor and she know has started taking him off this medication.  I hope the tics stop.  He&#039;s scared and this continues to add to his anxiety."
