Strattera

Strattera is a drug approved for the treatment of attention-deficit disorder with hyperactivity (ADHD) and considered by many to be a "safe" non-stimulant alternative to other ADHD drugs.  Manufactured by Eli-Lilly, the drug was called into question in 2005, when the FDA forced it to display a stringent "black box warning" about Strattera's side effects of suicidal ideation.  Children and teenagers are especially at risk; parents of a child who is taking Strattera should be on the lookout for mood swings and suicidal intentions.  Initially researched for its potential as an antidepressant, Strattera is now an alternative for patients who want a non-amphetamine-based ADHD drug.

Strattera Not Immune From Increased Suicide Risk

It is considered by many to be a "safe" alternative to amphetamine-laced, stimulant attention-deficit disorder with hyperactivity (ADHD) drugs, but Strattera is not immune to one of ADHD drugs' most chilling side effects: an increased risk of suicide in children and teens. It now carries a stringent FDA "black box" warning about its possible suicide side effects. Suicidal Ideation: A Significant Risk. read more
