[QUOTE="Mrs Smith, post: 60176, member: 3893"] I would hesitate to ask for a specific medication but keep pushing for one with a better response. Take notes of his behavior to bring with you so she can see that they are not effectively managing his symptoms. They do usually like to exhaust one class of medications before moving on to another because amazingly one will work while the others will not. It's completely hit or miss. Strattera is in a different class than the stimulants. I think it's an SNRI - a stimulating antidepressant, used for ADHD. We tried Wellbutrin (also an SNRI) and had a bad response. [/QUOTE]
