My son is 7 and he was on his forth day of the medicine. We were at his soccer game and he began complaining of chest pains. We called his Doctor and he said it was highly unlikely that the medicine would be causing this. He could not give us a reason for the pains though and the child has never complained of them before he started the medicine...

it is ABSOLUTELY the medicine! go to the Strattera.com website and look at the prescribing information

My 10 year old son has irregular heartbeat as well as a skipping pulse, his doctor told me it was not the medicine but it happens after he takes it in the mornings at school. The school nurse checks his vital signs and made me aware of this problem. He has been on Straterra for four months.
