Excerpt from the link above
Can increasing my Prozac dosage help with ADD?
[...]It *can* help. It isn't guaranteed, but it has been shown to be incredibly effective for many ADD/ADHD afflicted persons.
Yes, Prozac is an anti-depressant.. really the first developed Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor. SSRI.
Thus it will generally have the most 'data' behind it, and many off-label uses.
Over time it has been discovered that Prozac can have a positive effect in those who have ADD with a pathology that incorporates serotonin. Low levels, imbalances at the synapse, and so on.
