[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 174621, member: 1498"] It is pretty normal for kids to have mood swings and anger on Strattera. The prime time for these adverse reactions to appear is...... after taking it three months. I spoke with a woman whose son was in the clinical trials for Stratter and he had to drop out after 13 weeks because of it. Mothers have been reporting the exact same response since, well, three months after Strattera came out. Adding an antipsychotic isn't the answer. Kids who were alreading taking antipsychotics had the same response. The only way to stop a psychiatric adverse reaction to an antidepressant (Strattera is an SNRI antidepressant) is to stop the medication, not add more. [/QUOTE]
