Desipramine vs Strattera adult ADD-SLS/ D/R

So if ADD were the primary concern, and depression secondary or minor, which is the better choice?

Scott, you said Srattera made you tired. Is it supposed to work immediately? Or is it made to build up in the system as a/d's do?

I read the thread, the choice is not obvious to me. My nephew just started Strattera with less than a robust response-one week on.He's in college and is having trouble concentrating.

Assuming dx of ADD is correct, would Desipramine be a good second choice or am I off here? He can't take anything addictive such as stims, etc.

Thanks-
