I tried it for three weeks and it seemed to have the exact opposite effect that I was hoping for. I was hit with just about every side effect: dry mouth, sleeplessness as well as periods along with restlessness; lack of concentration; tingling skin(I sort of liked that part); heartburn..the list goes on. I told my doctor and she said that she's never heard of anyone having a negative reaction. Anyone out there who has experienced the same effects?

My son was on this med for 1 month and he experienced dry mouth, totally tired to the point when he did fall asleep he would pee the bed and had no clue till the am. he did experience some heartburn also.. Now he refuses to take anything which has made last year difficult in school... Good Luck to you and do not give up...:)

Sounds like your doctor is getting a kickback for prescribing Straterra,

TELL YOUR DOCTOR to prescribe you a different medication.
She should KNOW that everyone gets different side effects from all prescribed medications!!!
