[QUOTE="Malika, post: 612575, member: 11227"] Okay, so I have read a fairly enormous amount about Strattera :) The response is completely individual so you cannot know whether it will work for your boy until you try it - and reducing the amount of medications he is on seems like a good idea? The side effects can be pretty awful for the first weeks but you have to plough on past that until the medication starts taking effect - 3 to 4 weeks or even longer. The advantage is that the child usually eats and sleeps without problems, unlike with the stimulants. A lot of people seem to report that the side effects are reduced by taking the medication at night.
