In reply to JohnL. Re: Q's on new wonderdrug....Adrafinil., posted by michael on April 18, 2000, at 19:23:22

Michael,

The information I provided--such as the dosing range of 300mg t0 600mg--was copied from a net search. It wasn't my own writing. You are correct that the package label specifies doses of 600mg to 1200mg, but apparently less may work fine.

I noticed immediate effects of Adrafinil in terms of great mood and energy. But that faded in two days. It returned gradually over a period of two weeks in a slow but steady improvement. My mood actually is not as good as it was the first day (three weeks later). But interest, concentration, and motivation are strong. I don't physically feel any more energy than normal, but mentally I just want to do things. Previously, all I could do was keep the couch occupied.

It did indeed affect sleep during the first week. It was terrible. I could fall asleep OK, but then wake just a couple hours later. Midnight insomnia. Not even my Remeron was strong enough to overcome it. That did however disappear completely after a week. I sleep fine now.
