Experiences with

Nuvigil

FORTUNATELY I have been prescribed Nuvigil, a stimulant that has put the “energy” to enjoy life once again, not simply mope along.

., and have been prescribed Nuvigil, but I would like to take one less medication if I can help it. I have wondered if this has anything to do with the nerves that run throughout the occipital branches??

Also just started using Armodadinil (Nuvigil) today. I also have slightly elevated Vitamin B12 and ferritin levels. Not sure if that means anything though.

My psychiatrist constantly suggests adding Lexapro to all of my other medications (vyvanse, nuvigil, clonazapam, and sonata). I already feel like I take way too many pills as it is and I also don’t trust my pill dispenser of a dr’s judgement.

The fatigue was hard but Nuvigil has helped. My emotions go crazy...which sucks. Looking forward to meeting ya’all and learning.

I was taking Ritalin for ADHD and Nuvigil for falling asleep at inappropriate times. I was getting Ritalin rage and Nuvigil worked too well in the fact it would make it hard at night to get myself into bed. Fell asleep fine when I got into bed but could not get away from what i was doing.

He tried many medications for fatigue, provigil, nuvigil, amantidine, adderall. The only medicine that helped him so far is vyvanse for fatigue.

So for the past 3 months I've not been taking anything because the generic brand did not have the same positive affects as the brand nuvigil. It made me jittery, on edge, emotional and sad, nauseous, headaches and had no effect on my fatigue.

He gave me a few samples of Nuvigil. It is meant for people that has narcolepsy and people that work shift and have trouble staying fully awake. I took my first one before work this morning. I could feel it, gently, on my way to work. I felt energized and no brain fog all day.

I've been so tired lately and recently started taking Nuvigil for fatigue and it's helped some. Anyway, any advice is appreciated! Total cholesterol 232 range of 100-199 mg/dL triglycerides 262 range of 0-149 mg/dL VLDL cholesterol 52 range 5-40 mg/dL LDL 124 range of 0-99 mg/dL

So, he gave me some samples of Nuvigil (Armodafanil), from which I understand is in the same class as Risperdal. He wants me to come back and get bloodwork done, which I figure is to check lft's and I alsoI have a fatty liver. I'm not so sure I want to take anything that may hurt my liver.

My doctor tried me on a combination of Nuvigil and Adderall to combat my narcolepsy. First dose was yesterday and I will NEVER do that again. I felt like someone plugged me into a nuclear power plant and when it wore off I did a barrel roll style crash with an emotional meltdown in tears. Bad. Day.

I wake extremely stiff every morning, I have issues remembering things when I do not take my Nuvigil (speed) and I also have RLS and use Neupro patches for this. I would like to know if there is anyone on here who was first diagnosed with RBSD before they developed PD.

Since my diagnosis a month ago, I have been taking 1mg Clonazapine at bedtime, Placing a 1mg Neurpro patch 1 hour before bedtime and taking 250mg of Nuvigil (for Narcolepsy) every morning. It has given me my life back!

Hia someone on here mentioned their GP pescribed Nuvigil ( of the label use ) for their chronic fatigue,however when i asked my Gp today for it he said its not on pescription ,im assuming its as im in the UK. The person who luckily was pescribed Nuvigil was from Alaska.

( when I started Nuvigil for sleep apnea symptoms I was able to be awake for alot more of our trips periodically to my husbands VA hospital 120 miles away...but am currently off it due to the donut hole in insurance) My hubby refers to it as my "speed" as he thinks it makes that dramatic a difference
