What is recommended dosage for Nuvigil tablets?

I think it depends on severity of your condition. I have narcolepsy and the 150mg do not last throughout the day, but if I take the 250mg around 5:30am before work, I'm good for the day and have no side effects whatsoever. If my doctor hadn't had narcolepsy himself, he maynot havediagnosed my narcolepsy right away.
