Strattera has similar effects. (And apparently it was a 'failed' antidepressant in the US so no surprise).
My dreams on that crap were nothing but loud noises and color and the weirdest most surreal situations that mostly kept me awake. Psychotropic medications of all stripes affect your brain, monitoring them closely is really fracking important, and people who think it's just popping a pill a day and woohoo are usually people who haven't been on them. (Hint, there are no easy fixes to whoever posted that but sometimes they're needed ones.)
Pfizer's a corporate asshole for any hiding of this that was done with Chantix.
