[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 35511, member: 2423"] Sara, actually Effexor is prescribed off-label to treat ADHD. But it is certainly not a first-line ADHD treatment nor one I would expect a doctor to choose for a 6- and 8-year-old. I, too, would be concerned about prescribing Effexor to children who have a family history of bipolar. My son became manic after taking Effexor for 5 days. Needless to say, we pulled him off of it.
