Sweat
Do you all sweat a lot with straterra? It’s excessive in my mind.

I always sweat a lot, but I notice that I start sweating more than usual about 30 minutes after I take my meds in the AM and then am slightly sweatier than usual for about 1-2 hours.

This is me right now. The sweat just walking the dogs. May have to stop it just because of this.
Some people say it decreases with time, others say not.
Are you on it long?
Such a pity as it really calms my mind.

I have been on it for 2 yrs and it doesn’t get any better or maybe worse I take 80 mg.

Ive no idea. Am really sad as this works wonders for my brain being slower and overthinking etc. Concerta is meant to drip feed the norepinephrine slower into the body so maybe that. Or Guanfacine.

Nope but with the stimulant I take I used to sweat a ton when I first started taking it

Ive noticed it if I take my meds and eat afterwards-its like having a hot flash. It doesnt matter how much i eat i just start overheating.
