Drug Class and Mechanism

Attentin is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. Exactly how Attentin works to treat ADHD is not known. Attentin increases certain chemicals (e.g., norepinephrine) in the brain. This may affect attention span and behavior.

• you are taking or have taken a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) (e.g., phenelzine) within the last 14 days;

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Important:

• Attentin may cause dizziness, drowsiness, lightheadedness, or fainting. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Attentin with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.
• Attentin may cause dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting; alcohol, hot weather, exercise, or fever may increase these effects. To prevent them, sit up or stand slowly, especially in the morning. Sit or lie down at the first sign of any of these effects.
• Do not take more than the recommended dose or take for longer than prescribed without checking with your doctor.
• Children and teenagers who take Attentin may be at increased risk for suicidal thoughts or actions. Adults may also be affected. The risk may be greater in patients who have had suicidal thoughts or actions in the past. The risk may also be greater in patients who have had bipolar (manic-depressive) illness, or if their family members have had it. Watch patients who take Attentin closely. Contact the doctor at once if new, worsened, or sudden symptoms such as depressed mood; anxious, restless, or irritable behavior; panic attacks; or any unusual change in mood or behavior occur. Contact the doctor right away if any signs of suicidal thoughts or actions occur.
• Do not try to open the capsules or take them apart. Wash your hands immediately after using Attentin . Do not get Attentin in your eye. It may irritate your eye if you do. If you get Attentin in your eyes or nose, rinse at once with cool water.
• Lab tests, including heart rate, blood pressure, and liver function, may be performed while you use Attentin. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.

• Corticosteroids may affect growth rate in children and teenagers in some cases. They may need regular growth checks while they take Attentin.
