Atomoxetine dosage for full effects

Question

Asked for Male, 28 Years

Hi. I'm taking atomoxetine 10 mg since 6 weeks now. But I don't think 10 mg is the recommended dosage for full benefits and effects. Is the recommended dosage especially for adults 25 mg or 40 mg ? Or even more ? 10 mg is not effective at all. Especially the case for adults I believe.
