Cold turkey (adjective or adverb cold-turkey) means suddenly, completely, without alteration or replacement. It most often refers to stopping addictive substances or behaviors, including cigarette smoking (as opposed to seeking psychological support, nicotine patches, or other aids).

What is the best way to wean off of Strattera?
If you have the capsule form you can cut it in half and take that, slowly come off of it because coming off of it all at once can cause health effects/withdrawals.I have not come off of Strattera and have no intention to, as it is working wonderfully for me, but I would like to say that since Strattera is not a stimulant, the side effects of stopping the medication should be minimal and there should be no withdrawal, as Strattera is not addictive.I have read reports of people stopping Strattera suddenly due to being unable to get the drug due to insurance or money, or to give themselves a creativity boost, or they simply didn't want to take a medication anymore and having no problems coming off of it.As for cutting the capsule in half, please don't do that. From the packaging:Avoid touching a broken STRATTERA capsule. Wash hands and surfaces that touched an open STRATTERA capsule. If any of the powder gets in you or your child's eyes, rinse them with water right away and call your doctor.

Strattera side effect is hot flash warm feeling inside sweating like a cold?
I have had terrible problems with overheating on strattera, to the point that I can be dripping with sweat after a 2 block walk.
