Question

ADHD problem

Asked for Male, 28 Years

Hello. I'm taking fluoxetine 20 mg fludac brand since a month and it is of the class SSRI. It is helping with depression and anxiety to some extent but it not helping at all with ADHD problem. I'm sure my root problem is ADHD which fluoxetine is not addressing. I heard Bupropion is a medicine which is a non stimulant and can be given for ADHD as an effective aide. Should I shift to Bupropion from fluoxetine ? Or take them together or how ? Please advise. I take fluoxetine in the morning. This ADHD is really and truly frustrating.
