Attentra 10mg Tablet

Attentra 10mg Tablet is a tablet made by Genetics Pharmaceuticals that contains Atomoxetine 10mg, a non-stimulant ADHD medicine. It is used for ADHD. Pack size: 28 tablets.

Uses of Attentra 10mg Tablet

Attentra 10mg Tablet is used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children aged six and over, teenagers and adults, as part of a wider plan that includes educational, psychological and social support. It helps improve concentration and reduce impulsive and hyperactive behaviour. Unlike stimulant ADHD medicines it is not a controlled drug, and its full effect usually develops over several weeks.

How Attentra 10mg Tablet works

Atomoxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor. It blocks the pump that clears noradrenaline from nerve endings, so more of this chemical messenger stays active in the parts of the brain that control attention, planning and impulse control.

Possible side effects

Side effects of Attentra 10mg Tablet are often most noticeable in the first weeks and may include:

• Reduced appetite
• Stomach pain, nausea or vomiting
• Headache
• Sleepiness or difficulty sleeping
• Raised heart rate or blood pressure
• Irritability or mood swings

Contact a doctor straight away about any thoughts of self-harm or suicide, new aggression or hostility, dark urine or yellowing of the skin, chest pain or fainting.

Precautions and warnings

• Watch closely for changes in mood or behaviour, especially in the first months, and report them to the doctor.
• Tell your doctor if you have heart problems, high blood pressure, narrow-angle glaucoma, liver disease or a history of fits.
• Never take it with, or within two weeks of stopping, an MAOI antidepressant, and mention all other medicines, as fluoxetine and paroxetine raise atomoxetine levels.
• Your doctor will check height, weight, pulse and blood pressure regularly during treatment.
• Avoid driving or operating machinery if it makes you sleepy, and discuss pregnancy or breastfeeding with your doctor.

Storage

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original pack until use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
