Armodafinil is a medicine that helps people who are very sleepy during the day because of problems like narcolepsy and sleep apnea. If your doctor gives you this medicine, you usually take it once every morning.

For people who work at night and sleep during the day, it’s best to take it one hour before work starts.

You can take Armodafinil with or without food, but it might work a bit slower if you eat first.

If you’re using Armodafinil for sleep apnea, you should keep using your other treatments, like a CPAP machine, unless your doctor says it’s okay to stop. The amount of medicine you take will depend on your health and how you react to the medicine. It’s important to take it regularly to get the most help from it.

Stopping the medicine suddenly can make you feel shaky, sweaty, and confused.

If you need to stop taking it, your doctor will help you take less and less until you can stop safely. If you’ve been using Armodafinil for a long time, it might not work as well, so you should talk to your doctor if this happens.

Even though Armodafinil helps many people, it can be addictive, especially for people who have had problems with drugs or alcohol. It’s really important to take it just like your doctor tells you to avoid this.

Sometimes, you might get headaches, feel sick, or have trouble sleeping.

If these problems don’t go away or get worse, you should tell your doctor. If you have chest pain, a fast-beating heart, or signs of a serious allergic reaction like a rash, swelling, or trouble breathing, you should get help immediately.

Remember, your doctor gave you this medicine because they think it will help you more than it will hurt you. The vast majority of people do not have significant issues with it. But if you notice anything unusual, don’t forget to talk to your doctor or pharmacist. They are there to help you stay safe and feel better!
