Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is often treated with stimulant medications. However, some people don’t tolerate stimulants well, or they may have other health conditions that make stimulants a less attractive option. In these cases, a non-stimulant medication called Strattera (atomoxetine) might be a good fit.
Strattera is a prescription drug approved to treat ADHD in both adults and children. It can cause side effects that range from mild annoyances to more serious problems. Some people who take Strattera experience sexual side effects, including erectile dysfunction.
Dealing with erectile dysfunction can be stressful and upsetting. You might wonder, “If I develop erectile dysfunction from Strattera, will it go away?”
This article provides an overview of Strattera and its potential side effects, with a special focus on erectile dysfunction and strategies for managing it.
