I've never tried a med with so much nausea and tiredness. I started with just 30mg, took 60mg samples and took half. Suppose to move to 60 though and am surprised this med makes me tired and lethargic??

Thats what it did to me. Didn't or couldn't get out of bed. And felt bad at the same time. I quit taking it shortly after trying it a couple of days. After that I decided I was not ADD. It sort of made me feel sick and drained of energy.

Just because Strattera made you feel that way doesn't mean you're not ADD. Vyvanse works good but would like to try something besides a stimulant.

I've been doing fine without a med for ADD. Don't see any reason to take one. Don't know what else there is to try. That was a long time ago and one doctor ago.

Our youngest son took stratterra with disastrous consequences: he lost weight, turned yellow/sallow, felt sick all the time, had narcoleptic-like episodes that left him missing out on much of the school day, and (as a formerly happy, normal 4th-grader) suddenly became morose and suicidal. His liver panels were abnormal, and he ended up hospitalized. He has been fine since the drug was discontinued. Bad stuff.
