How Atomoxetine Works
Atomoxetine is a medicine that is used for the treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children 6 years of age and over, adolescents, and adults as a part of the overall treatment program for ADHD that may include other measures (psychological, educational, and social). Atomoxetine should not be used in children under 6 years of age. Atomoxetine is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor medicine that increases the amount of noradrenaline, a natural chemical in the brain. Atomoxetine may help increase attention and decrease impulsiveness and hyperactivity in patients with ADHD. Atomoxetine works differently from other medicines used for the treatment of ADHD. Atomoxetine is not a stimulant and is not addictive.
