Non-stimulant medications for people with ADHD differ from stimulant medications because they do not increase levels of neurotransmitters such as dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain as rapidly. They can be an option for treating ADHD symptoms in individuals who do not respond well to stimulants or who experience significant side effects. Examples include atomoxetine and some antidepressants. Non-stimulant medications may take longer to show effects and have a different side effect profile compared to stimulants.
