"my son 13 has strattera for almost a year.  starting from 10mg for a month, 20 mg for a month, 30 mg for 3 months,  40mg for 6 months then 50mg for now.  the only side effect is dry mouth.  everything else is good, he can make friends and focus in class.  however, i still think strattera is not a magic pill.  combining both medication and behaviour modification works best for our adhd children.   lots of love and acceptance are the best remedy,"
