  • Can’t I be a curious and concerned patient looking to fix a problem, who is still not having the relief of symptoms and would like to try a higher dosage based on others who share the same symptoms and have had success with a higher dosage? That is how I presented it, and the psych took it all into account and while I didn’t get what I wanted there was a kind of compromise where I do get a higher dosage, not 450 but 400. I am grateful for their advice and expertise, but when it comes to ADHD so many of them really struggle with understanding what options are available. 300 is not the max dose, many ADHD’ers did not begin to experience any benefit at all until 450.

    thanks for sharing


  • Wow, I never heard of Auvelity, interesting combination. Wellbutrin is only FDA approved to treat depression and to stop smoking but it is also used off label for ADHD. For me it doesn’t help a ton with ADHD but it does help a little, in terms of keeping my mind more put together. (Just doesn’t give me that hard focus that lets me actually complete tasks, I take Strattera for that and still considering stimulants) I was hoping to go to 450 because some ADHD’ers have reported using that dose and it helping. For those with ADHD that it helps, they report it kind of like a mild stimulant.
