Could I hear from people who have taken Straterra or Wellbutrin SR for ADHD or ADD? My son has ADHD, and for 19 years we have tried stims-worked well, but caused tics, Desipramine--didn't do enough, and now Wellbutrin SR and Catapress. He hasn't been taking the Catapress recently, and has been on a sub-therapeutic dose of the Well SR. His dose of the Well SR will be increased to the 2 150 tabs, from one a day. I am wondering if it would be better to switch him to Straterra. Does it work better for focus and concentration than the Wellbutrin? My son also has anxiety, and may be smoking pot at times too. We also tried him on Neurontin and Depakote with not much benefit seen.
