What medications work best for narcolepsy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

there are a lot of medication options. And something else to consider is that narcoleptics often suffer from additional issues like: restless legs syndrome, apnea, and cataplexy, which may require their own medications. I have been diagnosed with narcolepsy for over 12 years and in that time i have taken ritalin: This did keep me awake but i had to take it 3 times a day, and I wasn't great about taking them at the exact right times. And if i didn't take them at the exact time i was supposed to, i would really feel a "crash". I decided that the ups and downs were to extreme. But many people take it and it works for them. I think it's important to learn about the options and then try one and see how it works for YOU. Everyone responds differently. Dexedrine: this worked well to keep me awake but I occasionally felt like i was buzzing and I didn't like the research that i was reading about the affects that amphetimenes can have on your body. So i looked for an alternative. Provigil: much better! This is great for me, it is not an amphetimine and I think it does a much better job of keeping me awake and stablized. I currently take a generic version that is 100% fine. Unfortunately the greedy drug manufacturing companies in the US have actually paid generic drug manufacturers NOT to make a generic of provigil, so i have to order it from Canada. The price is much better and the quality is the same, they mail the pills to me, and the customer service is fantastic.

For common drug interactions, visit: http://www.drugdigest.org/DD/Interaction/ChooseDrugs/1,4109,,00.html There, you can "plug in" different drugs and find out if there are any known interactions. You really need to ask a pharmacist to be sure. Don't gamble with drugs, drug combinations or your health. Call your local drug store. They'll be glad to assist. ~ T

How old you have to be to take pills?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The 'Morning After Pill', also known as 'Levonelle', is legal to be bought by someone over the age of 16.

I am assuming you are either younger than this, or were just confused. If you are younger than 16, i strongly recommend that you go to talk to your GP or the family planning clinic (FPC) the people in there will keep what you tell them completely confidential and don't be nervous, better to sort it out, rather than leave it until its too late!

How long do i need to wait until i can take xanax after taking suboxone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's not very easy to answer because it depends on the dose of each drug and how far apart they were taken, among other things, but it can last longer than 24 hours.

Mixing these two drugs is VERY dangerous and you should contact a doctor immediately if you have done so.

Can you take Keflex and Doxycycline together?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

These two antibiotics do not have a direct negative or synergistic interaction, so it's possible your doctor can prescribe both for you. However, it's not too common to see both of these prescribed at the same time, as it's more common to see your doctor identify and attempt to attack one infection, for which one antibiotic is perhaps the best choice. In the case of multiple, indentified and cultured infections, multiple antibiotics may be used.

How many milligrams does it take to overdose on hydrocodine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That depends on the person. If they have a a high tolerance from years of use it can be over 10. I know a person who can take (16) 5mg tablets of Oxycodone which is stronger but without the Tylenol and have no overdose affect. On Hydrocodone the second number AKA the 500mg is the amount of Acetaminophen or Tylenol in the combination. A person with great tolerance would probably get sick off the Tylenol before a Hydrocodone overdose. Now that is a person who takes a lot of Oxycodone. I guess if you are looking for a basic rule, figure the max amount a person can take before feeling sick and add three pills and that should be an overdose to kill. An overdose is explained when the person gets sick from the medication and the body rejects it. Hydrocodone slows the pulse rate and hampers breathing. So an overdose that kills will stop the heart and lungs!
