Fatigue on Tolvaptan

Hello all,

I've started taking Tolvaptan (45/15) and I'm experiencing extreme muscle fatigue and brain fog.

Does anyone else experience this? Any recommendations on how to deal with this?

Hi are you potentially a little dehydrated? Additionally, if you are getting up in the night to wee you maybe suffering from disturbed sleep - which can be exhausting.

There is a very well moderated closed Facebook Group its called Tolvaptan Community you will find members share many personal experiences along with hints and tips.

Best wishes

Susan, are more PKD folks on the facebook pages than on here. I've only run across a few PKD folks on this site. Seems there should be more on here. I'm just not a facebook person.

Hello, Yes Facebook seems to have the most active PKD online groups in the PKD Community.

I know many people who have a Facebook account only to participate in these groups.

For privacy make sure you join a “closed” group this is private and posts will not be seen by “friends” on Facebook.
