Drug Information
15 reviews for Atomoxetine (Strattera)
Strattera contains Atomoxetine.
Atomoxetine is a non-stimulant medicine for ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). It helps improve attention and reduce impulsiveness and hyperactivity.
Because it is not a stimulant, it is not addictive and it works all day, but it takes a few weeks to reach its full effect.
What is it used for?
- ADHD in children aged 6 and over, teenagers and adults
How does it work?
Atomoxetine raises the level of noradrenaline, a chemical messenger in the brain that helps with focus and self-control.
This information is written in simple words to help you understand this product. It does not replace advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Read these points before you start. If any of them apply to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.
- Tell your doctor if you have heart problems, high blood pressure, glaucoma, liver problems, or a tumour of the adrenal gland (phaeochromocytoma).
- It can rarely cause thoughts of self-harm, especially in children and teenagers. Watch for changes in mood or behaviour.
- Do not take it with, or within 2 weeks of, an MAOI antidepressant.
- Your doctor will check height, weight, blood pressure and heart rate regularly.
- Tell your doctor or pharmacist about every other medicine, vitamin or herbal product you use.
- Keep this product out of the reach and sight of children.
Like all medicines, Strattera can cause side effects, but not everybody gets them.
Common side effects
- Loss of appetite and weight loss
- Stomach pain, feeling sick or being sick
- Headache
- Feeling tired or sleepy
- Mood swings or irritability
These are usually mild and often get better as your body gets used to it. Tell your doctor if they bother you or do not go away.
Stop using it and get medical help straight away if you notice:
- Thoughts of self-harm or suicide
- Yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine or itching (liver problems)
- Chest pain, a fast or uneven heartbeat, or fainting
- An erection that lasts longer than 4 hours
This is not a complete list. If you notice anything unusual, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
- Take it once a day in the morning, or split into two doses (morning and late afternoon).
- Swallow the capsule whole. Do not open it, as the powder can irritate the eyes.
- The dose depends on body weight. Adults usually start at 40 mg a day and increase to 80 mg.
- It takes 1 to 4 weeks to start working and up to 12 weeks for the full effect.
If you miss a dose: Take it as soon as you remember the same day. Do not take more than the total daily dose in 24 hours.
If you use too much: Contact your doctor, a poison control centre or your local emergency number straight away, even if you feel fine. Take the pack with you.
How to store it: Keep it in its original pack at room temperature (below 25°C / 77°F), away from heat, damp and direct sunlight. Do not use it after the expiry date.
