When I first started Strattera (many YEARS ago)--my appetite took a nose-dive--and weight just melted off of me. (I liked that!). I lost over 15 pounds without changing anything else (such as activity level or other medications). However, after being on Straterra for three years---that nice side effect wore off....and the appetite came back--and so did the 15 pounds....I THINK that it effects each person differently.
Strattera is usually taken for ADD. It can affect appetite, therefore making u lose weight.
Yes, appetite increase while you are pregnant
Strattera's most common side effects are stomach upset (including nausea, vomiting, dyspepsia or indigestion, appetite decrease, fatigue, and mood swings).
Mixing Lexapro and Strattera can cause a few side effects. The Lexapro can cause the Strattera to build up in the blood more. This causes dry mouth, sleep problems, dizziness, loss of appetite and heart palpitations.
hi heather, I'm not sure what you mean? Strattera has very little effect on the appetite. So if you want to gain weight just eat lots of fattening foods. That will do it.
although it is illegal, the use of marijuana will increase appetite
no
yes it contains lysin which is appetite stimulant so ultimately it will increase your appetite and weight
Yes, Xanax is known to stimulate the appetite. It is a benzodiazepine and most of them do.
I am both a recovering alcoholic and bulimic. I have absolutely no appetite on strattera, so it should not trigger any bulimic behavior. I have just over a year sober and have had no desire to drink since taking the medication. So for me, strattera has not had any negative effect on either affliction. Good luck!
I know that Strattera's most common side affect is dry mouth, which I experience. Creatine increases water retention, so I also wondering if this combination would increase the dry mouth.
Both Marinol and Periactin have been used to increase appetite.
