Strattera (Atomoxetine)

Description

Product Description

Strattera is a medical product of the new generation which is prescribed for the treatment of the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. It contains an active ingredient Atomoxetine.

Unlike Ritalin, Strattera is better tolerated, does not provide a side effect, and works well for children. The mechanism of the action of Strattera consists in the modification of the behavior by means of the selective action to the receptors of noradrenaline.

Strattera is not a psychostimulant, and therefore it acts softly, does not cause a medical addition, and can be used for a long time. This drug reduces the symptoms of the attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder and helps to restore all functions of the brain which have been affected as a result of this disease.

Atomoxetine is quickly and completely absorbed after the oral use, gaining the maximal concentration in 1-2 hours. It is not accumulated in the body and is excreted by kidneys in about 4-6 hours.

In what dose should be Strattera used?

The dose of Strattera depends on the symptoms of the disease and age/body weight of the patient. Adults should take Strattera in high doses: 40-120 mg per day. The treatment begins with 40 mg of Strattera per day, and then the dose is increased up to 80-120 mg depending on the severity of the symptoms.
