...and that teva/novopharm successfully "impeached" lilly's patent. :) looks like novo-atomoxetine is available or is going to be available. sorry if anything relating to this has already been posted.

Hmm, is this currently available?

I wonder if its worth the switch from methylphenidate? I think I did a little better on atomoxetine vs. methylphenidate.

i'm going after what i'm assuming is its blocking of the heterologous uptake by NET of dopamine in the PFC. i think this may be less anxiogenic for me may not have an alarming effect on my BP. (last time on methylphenidate it was 150/96 using the pharmacy machine.)

dopamine in the pfc iirc also causes glutamate projections back to the basal ganglia to indicate "too much dopamine". keeping this in mind, my notably beneficial but incomplete response to desipramine may suggest a more robust response to NET inhibition with the memantine i am already taking atm. in combination with previously adderall and lately concerta has been intolerably overdriving it's effects. maybe neglecting the NAcc and striatum via leaving DAT alone will be more helpful.
