[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 224857, member: 4040"] Hubby had a similar reaction to Strattera, even after he was at the proper dosage for his weight. His doctor wanted him to try it for a month...I was dead set against it, wanted him to go on Ritalin, but I was outvoted. He had horrible mood swings, would go from crying to agitated pacing, wanting to punch something, and back to being upset and tearfully apologizing. At the next appointment (I went along), I handed the doctor a spreadsheet tracking doses, moods, and behaviors, and requested, "Ritalin. Now." Miss KT did better in school on Strattera, but her attitude and behavior went slightly downhill. She stayed on it for about two years, mainly because she wasn't eating on the stims. [/QUOTE]
