The above poster mentioned something that is worth highlighting again. As of now, I don't think that a generic version has come onto the market. For me, a month's worth of pills cost over $100, and that was with my insurance (which was pretty generous, I think).

I also remembered something else. Most people try the non-stimulant approach if they already have anxiety and do not want to exacerbate it, which is something that stimulants are known to do. This is the reason I tried Strattera. However, I am now on Focalin XR, which is a stimulant medication, and do not get nearly the increase in anxiety that I did on say, Concerta or Ritalin. So if you are trying Strattera as a way to stay away from the possible anxiety-producing side effects of stimulants, but don't get the results you desire after being on it for a while, don't give up hope. Different meds effect people differently. And just because one med didn't work doesn't mean that another won't.
