A member asked:

My daughter started flapping her hands. her dr took her off straterra and zoloft and replaced both with fluoxetine. shes never flapped her hands before. she was once on fluoxetine and did fine. is it from being taken off the others?? could go away?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This is called a tic and was induced by her use of Zoloft or Strattera. I think it is most likely from Strattera. It is a side effect that went away when she stopped that medication. It will likely recur if she takes The meds again. (Zoloft may have contributed some to the development of the tic as well.) Tics are well known side effects of the more common meds for ADHD. The best to you!
