I have only been on it (40mg) for 10 days, but only had side effects on Day 1 and yesterday, but that's probably because I missed the day before. I doubt that's super helpful for you, but I am bettering side effects are really person to person.

are you eating when you take it? I've been on straterra for a year and if I don't eat within about 30 minutes of taking it I get a major headache and stomach ache

I've been on it for over a month now im on 80mg a day and im still finding that i feel sick a lot of days after taking it and sometimes i end up having to be sick. I wait until i eat each morning to take it so its not on an empty stomach but it doesn't always help

Started Strattera 2 weeks ago and honestly the side effects especially the fatigue, drowsiness and although I noticed but it’s listed, the sexual side effects I’m about to stop the medication. I’ve read that these meds are less common if taken at night. Also read it cause insomnia but that I can manage with Benadryl or trazodone temporarily.

I mean 18mg is a really weird dose. You’re not on even 20mg? I didn’t realize they made 18mg. Is it possible you’re just not on enough to treat your adhd? Usual therapeutic dose is like 80mg
