Yes, I used it for my son briefly. He complained of stomach ache, he lost two pounds, and he was more agitated with it, so we took him off. He was on it about a month or two. He was not calmed very much with the medicaation.

My son began taking Strattera at the age of 9. It was a miracle drug! He could tell the difference and his grades shot up. He made the honor roll for the first time in his life. We were lucky in that he had absolutely no side effects. His dosage was adjusted as he grew, but he eventually (after 1 1/2 yrs.) stopped responding to the meds. He started on Focalin XR 3 days ago and we will see how it works.
