Other Meds Out There?Wellbutrine or Effexor at a high dosage, or both. Wellbutrine increases libido. There are dozen of other meds used for ADHD usually if stims don't work they go to antidepressants and so on from there. http://www.adhdnews.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3119&P N=2Thanks so much for all your replies. Not sure if this has been discussed before, so apologies if I am re-introducing this topic. I'd like to get your opinions (or info) regarding "natural" drugs (those ads we see everytime you are on any ADD website. Seems like a shame with all these "testimonials" but what do I know. Hope everyone had a great holiday.I've been on Wellbutrin at the maximum dosage for two years fordepression and only recently diagnosed with ADD, now Adderall is added. While Wellbutrin is sometimes used for ADD it is with mixed results. Clearly, it didn't help mine. Adderall and Wellbutrin together are considerd a particularly effective combination, though. But . . .Wellbutrin is a psychotropic drug, not a stimulant. It can take 4 to 6 weeks for results to be felt fully, and in the beginning it has side-effects for some people, like other antidepressants, that are pretty awful to endure. they do go away, but you have to stick it out. Wellbutrin is also very expensive, and if you have insurance this won't matter if you just have a copay. But if you don't . . . check that out too. |
