In reply to 1st day on strattera 40mg, posted by hopetohelp on March 3, 2003, at 22:00:07
Hi there,
I am on zoloft and strattera. There is no negative impact, according to the data/literature, of using SSRI's with Strattera. However, starting at 40 is pretty fast. I started at 10 and am now on week 3 up to 30 mg. I get minor side effects the first day or so after I up the dose but then they pass. I had a very hard time coming off of prozac with lots of nausea so that could be part of your problem. I would definitely talk to your doctor about going down to 10 mg on the strattera and starting again slowly. Also, there's no reason to go off the Prozac if you still need it. Hope this helps.
