i just got prescribed intuniv for adhd...is this going to be like another bullshit strattera or should i actually benefit from it... any reviews or opinions?
 
It's got a pretty good evidence base as far as I can see, so definitely worth a try :)
 
No it sucks it's worse then Strattera. Take my word for it I used to take it why do you think it's not approved for add. It doesn't work at all all it does is make you sleepy as fuck. Get some stimulants or forget ADD meds there the only ones that work.

btw tell us you're experiance lemme know if I'm wrong..

Think of it as a really complicated Clonidine.
 
lol yeah so far its just made me sleepy i dont feel any more focused than before...but its only day three and im on two mgs... im not very hopefully for it so far.
 
I was just prescribed it and wondering if you or anyone had any success on it? I'd be taking it in addition to Adderall XR.
 
its been shit so far to me...im taking it alone and it hasnt been doing a damn thing for me...i hope your experience goes better than mine. good luck!
 
ADD and ADHD are both caused by dopamine deficiency so you need a medication that preferably indirectly increases dopamine levels in the synaptic cleft such as amphetamines or a dopamine reuptake inhibitor.
