Frequently Asked Questions
Is atomoxetine the same as Strattera?
Yes — atomoxetine is the generic form of Strattera. It became available as a generic in 2017 and costs $30–$60/month versus $280–$330 for brand.
Is atomoxetine a controlled substance?
No — atomoxetine is not a controlled substance, which makes it easier to prescribe and refill than stimulant ADHD medications like amphetamine salts or methylphenidate.
How long does atomoxetine take to work for ADHD?
Unlike stimulants, atomoxetine takes 4–8 weeks to reach full effect. It is a continuous daily medication, not a take-as-needed treatment.
Is atomoxetine as effective as Adderall for ADHD?
Stimulants like Adderall generally show slightly stronger effect sizes in trials, but atomoxetine is a solid option — especially for patients with substance-use concerns, anxiety, or tic disorders.
Can Script Unlock help me find affordable atomoxetine?
Yes. Generic atomoxetine is available through Script Unlock pharmacies, often at competitive cash prices well below retail chains.
