It's a non-stimulant medication. Typically if you have something like bi-polar, a stimulant will cause more issues than focus. I am on Adderall, but I have clinical depression and anxiety, so it works for me.

My best friend's son is on Strattera. It has helped. Just realize that it may be a good idea to ask your doctor about behavioral therapy to help learn skills to work with your ADHD. I am lucky enough to be able to afford a life coach who specializes in ADHD...

Hope that helps.
