Hi Mitch.

Have you considered trying Effexor (venlafaxine)?

I recall seeing several studies showing it to be effective for ADHD. However, I don't recall if it was as effective for attentional features as it was for behavioral / mood features.


Here's a Medline link. You might need to copy-and-paste the entire link that follows into your browser. Clicking might not work.
