Straterra Users!
Please have your doctor draw bloodwork to check your liver enzymes. The FDA has issued a warning about potential liver failure. They say it is 2 cases out of 2 million, not really a threat, but admit there may be underreporting since the doctors did not know this might be a complication of this drug. I had mine drawn, and my enzymes were up after only 2 months on the drug. It's worth checking out!

2. Adult ADHD
It was touted as being better than Concerta or Ritalin because it is not a stimulant.

3. I've heard nothing but bad things about Straterra, especially for men
I was taking Ritalin for ten years, but I've recently switched to Adderall, which is much better because it lasts longer. Are you familiar with this website?
