I take my first 40 mg. of Strattera upon awakening, then the second around noon.
I took Xanax for years, and Neurontin helped me go from 3 mg. a day to just one 15 mg. a day of Tranxene. I've also recently started taking Strattera, 40 mg. at the moment. What time of day do you take it? Thanks.

For this reason only, Strattera saved my life. I realize medication works differently for everyone - but for me, Strattera served as a miracle ...I wonder if the medical field is looking into this phenomenon. As for ADD symptoms, I can tell a difference. Now at 80 mgs. I can hop out of bed in the morning instead of waiting for Adderall to "kick in". I also have more motivation to finish tasks, no fidgets and no anxiety.
