See your doctor. Adderall can cause tics, but not Strattera.
Will Strattera have the same affects as adderall at 120 mg help big test tomorrow?
No it wouldn't have the same affects. Strattera is a non-stimulant, non controlled drug used for ADHD. Adderall is a stimulant and a controlled drug. I take Adderall for narcolepsy to keep me awake. Adderall can also be taken for ADHD.

Is it normal for a 7 year old boy with autism and severe ADHD who has just started taking adderall 5 mg daily to have the side effect of being very emotional?
A: The "normal" effects on children when referring to Adderall should in fact be calming, and focusing. Your child shouldn't be an emotional wreck when taking Adderall. You need to talk to your doctor about the sudden abnormal side effects the Adderall is causing, because sometimes it causes suicidal thoughts and worsens unknown psychological illnesses. They will probably switch your child to a non-stimulant medication such as Strattera. And another thing perhaps the reason that the Adderall is acting adversely could be that he is also autistic. Because in that case the Adderall would definetly worsen the autism.
Does Strattera contain morphine?
No, it does not contain any opiates. To put it bluntly, Strattera has no real value as a recreational drug, nor is it terribly effective for it's intended purpose. Most ADD/ADHD treatments, such as Adderall, contain dopamine reuptake inhibitors which can produce a speedy high. However, Strattera does not contain DRIs, as it is an alternative to stimulant based treatment forms.
Best medicine for some with adhd and a fast metabolism and Strattera does not work?
I know focalin would not work because it has to stay in your system for a little while to see the good effects (side effects are usually present immediately). I have high metabolism and adderall IR and strattera didn't work for me either.
Has anyone found Strattera to be as effective as Adderall XR for providing the motivation and energy to begin and complete tasks?
Strattera was a complete waste of time for me. Lots of side effects and no efficacy. Adderall XR is much better. Strattera seems to be useful for about 1/2 those who take it. Plus it's very new. Effects of low doses of stimulants are very well understood over time. NOT SO with Strattera, despite all the fancy marketing material. I had exact same experience as above post. Maybe Strattera is good at treating hyperactivity, but for motivation and drive it's terrible! Same here. Personally, I think Strattera is a drug they give people at first to see who's just trying to get speed from Dr.s and who wants to really get help. If you go through the hoops, I guess they assume your genuine. My doctor pescribed me strattera and when i took it i felt a no energy, i could not pay attention, and i felt depressed but then i took adderal and it was completely diffrent thing
Will taking caffeine and Strattera help concentration?
Well and this is jusy my personal opinion, the euphoric state and level of concentration your able to obtain while taking adderall is obviously more potent than that of caffeine and coming off of adderall besides the occasional emotional mood swing is free of the drop in energy that caffeine induces. If you look aside from the chemical differences adderall is a safer alternative to taking the high amounts of caffeine it would take to even acheive anywhere close to the feeling that adderall gives you or the ability to concentratrate and focus on specific tasks which I don't think caffeine would allow because of it's difference. Caffine seems too be a mild stimulant where as adderall is a prescribed medication specifically designed to help with a problem. It makes the differences easier to see perhaps from an athletice perspective, I can play with my adderall as I monitor my intake when I play as where caffeine would only eventually hamper my play, regardless of the dosage because of it's physical effect on my body. So I would say that yes there is a significant difference between the too. Trust me I play better with a little adderall and a healthly diet than with a couple cokes that don't allow me that great a level of concentration for me. Cokes are great any other time as well though. Hope I helped a little. Wish you the best of luck. God bless.
