My son was taking Strattera and we took him off of it. We were not seeing any positive results for school. He was however more sociable. He has ADD and also has depression. I've read more post talking about opening the caps? I didn't know you could...?? I'm beginning to think he was on way to high a dose much too fast. Started on 40milligrams then 60 and would eventually go to 80 mgs. He's 12 years old and weighs 175 approx. The Zoloft he's on works very well for him but he still needs something more for the ADD. I'm thinking i might try him back on Strattera but open the cap and divide it. Anyone have more info on this subject? Thanks *S*
