Just prescribed Strattera. What could I expect when I start taking it? - eviltoast
  • Did it work for you?
  • If so, how long did it take to work?
  • What did it feel like?
  • Did you have any side effects?

    I’m on it now but will probably try something else when I run out. It helped me concentrate a bit, but the side effects were strong for me. The biggest was drowsiness. It was very hard to keep my eyes open. In some ways it was nice being able to go to sleep easily and having it feel restful. It hurt productivity though. I also made my head feel a bit dizzy and reduced my appetite noticeably. Its effects were basically immediate. I have heard it work really well for others though, so don’t let that discourage you.

      Same with the immediate effects. I didn’t not expect that at all. It sucks that the drowsiness is that strong for you tho. I hope you find a good fit.
