Been going to my Psych and been diagnosed with ADD
Was put on 18mg strattera, i am a Male 6'1" 200lbs
felt great for a month but recently i feel very sluggish,Tired, unmotivated and sweat more.
I told my Psych and he said if i still feel this way next month he will lower my dosage to 10mg.
I am wondering if the reason i am so sluggish is because of my very low dosage to start off with.
I read somewhere that the correct dosage for an adult of my weight is around 60mg.
Does my Psych not know what hes doing???
Im:confused: getting tired of this medicine.

Bored,
Get a new shrink before your guy bores you to death with his ignorance.
I'm not kidding. Fire him promptly and get a ADHD experienced shrink.

My child/young adult is on an 80mg dose. She is 120 pounds and about 5' 7" so I would think your dose is a bit low!
