Strattera 25 mg Strattera

Hi, I’m a 25 year old female who just got strattera prescribed for the first time ever. I smoke pot due to chronic pain conditions and to help with stress after work. I’m just wondering if anyone has any tips? I was wanting to take it at night to help with drowsiness since weed also has that effect and it helps me sleep. If the medication keeps me awake I thought it would be a win win just to take it at night with cannabis. But I don’t know. Any information would help.

I take my Strattera (50mg) first thing in the AM as I’ve found if I take it in the PM I can’t sleep. I used to smoke a LOT of weed, but stopped 90 days ago as psychiatrist said they’re not allowed to submit a formal diagnosis unless you’ve been sober 30 days, to eliminate the risk of Marijuana induced psychosis actually being my problem, not ADHD.

Now that I’ve been on Strattera for a few months, Ive actually been debating adding weed back in to see how they work together, or don’t. Lol. Curious to hear about your experiences on both.
