Re: Nuvigil Users Question - Taking 250 MG Please Read

I use modafinil, which is very similar to nuvigil (nuvigil is an enantiomere of modafinil, meaning it uses only one part of the modafinil molecule-- presumably one that is either as or more effective as the full modafinil molecule).

Modafinil has an immediate effect-- it is not a drug that builds up over time to produce its effect. I can't say definitively that that is true of nuvigil, but I would expect that. So if you're not getting any effect after trying for several days-- days on which you think you're in what's an ongoing state for you (ie not days that are especially bad), I suspect you're not getting a high enough dose. Or the drug isn't strong enough in general, or isn't the right drug to treat your condition.

You probably should call your pdoc again and see what he suggests.

Good luck.
