Has Anyone Tried Modafinil?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

My husband has bad concentration and memory problems, and finds it difficult to work with such a foggy brain. I'd like to know if anyone has had success with this medication, as the consultant writes it off as being 'for narcolepsy'.

I've been on it for awhile and it gives me an energy boost in the morning. I don't have "narcolepsy". I also take it in the afternoon where it doesn't seem to have that much effect... I started at 100 mg in the morning but it made me too nervous so I got back to 50mg in morning and 50mg in afternoon..

I was just looking at it. That may be something I may have to look.into and discuss with my new MDS.
