[QUOTE="justour2boys, post: 612570, member: 6235"] My oldest is on Straterra, so here is my 2 cents as a Mom... not a doctor. This drug needs time to work, so you have to build up the dosage over time. You won't see results right away like you do with a stimulant, but "things" get better slowly over a few weeks. The medications are expensive since it is brand name with no generic. So when up-dosing, ask for a smaller quantity. My son had stomach issues when he took it in the morning, so we changed to taking it right after dinner and all is well. We have since added a small dose (10 mg) stimulant for school hours and the combination works well. [/QUOTE]
