[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 189125, member: 1498"] Strattera is an SNRI (selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor), one in a class of drugs approved in some countries as antidepressants but in this country only for the treatment of ADHD. It has all the same warnings an any other antidepressant including a black box warning about suicidal ideation in children. Many parents report that it does help with focus but a lot report psychiatric side effects including hostility, aggression, "just plain nasty" which generally leads to discontinuing the drug. Some parents say the side effects started almost immediately, others notice problems beginning around three months. That's pretty much the way it works with antidepressants. Didn't the doctor advise you of what psychiatric side effects you should be watching for? She should have. [/QUOTE]
