Hi, I was today prescribed Ardosons for acute pain and inflammatory process of the joint on my middle right finger. I made it clear to the physician that I have blood high pressure and that I was subject to a cateterism on 2006 due to ischemic peripheral vessels.

Over the weekend, I have run out of Tizanidine and am in a lot of pain, also the sciatica is the worst.

Is stattera used for ADHD ? Is it the same as hypercon 10? ## Hi Lorelle, Yes, Strattera (Atomoxetine) is in fact used for the treatment of ADHD. And based on my research, Hypercon 10 is said to contain the same active ingredient (Atomoxetine); so both drugs 'should' act in the same manner. Apparently, Hypercon 10 is manufactured in India by a company called Consern Pharma. However, I don't know anything about the legitimacy or efficacy of their products, since foreign medications aren't as strictly regulated as they are here in the US. There are loads of counterfeit drugs out there, so I do wonder if you ordered this medication from a reputable pharmacy? You can learn more about this drug on the page for Atomoxetine Details Has anyone else tried these tablets? ## Does s...
