I only know of one non-stimulant alternative (strattera), and it didn't work for me (it handled the ADHD to some degree, but the side-effects were terrible). They definitely could use a little more progress in that area, as I would love to stop using Amphetamine derivatives.
- DannyBee 13y agoFor children, there is Intuniv and Kapvay. For adults, only straterra. You do sometimes see wellbutrin as an off-label use. I'm also curious which side-effect you experience from strattera. In my mid-20's, I moved off amphetamines onto it, and have had no side-effects at all. There is essentially no progress in this area because nobody cares. They keep finding new amphetamine derivatives to make, and they are quite cheap to produce, and still patentable.
