I forgot a few days of my Strattera and I feel confused?

24-year-old woman2 years ago
A few days ago, I forgot to take my straterra. Also, the week before, I was traveling and the pharmacy gave me the wrong dose (60mg instead of 80mg) and I forgot to take it a few days during my vacation as well. During the last 2 days, I feel like my brain is "scrambled". Not thinking straight. When I come to sleep, I feel like I'm hallucinating and it makes me panic, so I wake up with a start. I'm afraid of having some kind of "psychosis".

Hello ma'am, although this may be due to the events mentioned, it usually goes away quickly after the medication is resumed. However, if you have stopped taking the medication for several days in a row and resumed your usual dose, this could also be the cause.
Anxiety may also be involved, so if the situation persists or worsens, I strongly suggest that you see a doctor for a thorough evaluation of your condition.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
