What other non-stimulant drugs are available for ADHD?
06/19/08
My son is on Straterra and is above his recommended dosage. When his dosage was right he was performing above average as most ADHD kids do, but his dosage flatenned and he struggled the last few months. He had bad side effects on the stimulants and I was wondering if anyone knew of any other non-stimulant drugs being used?
