What is the cost of narcolepsy medication?

I’ve been interested in the cost of narcolepsy medication, and just treatment of narcolepsy in general. I’m pretty clueless as to how someone could get medication for the condition. Is it purely prescription based? How much are prescriptions costing you? Do free-clinics give out prescriptions or do you have to pay for medical insurance to go see a doctor for diagnosis and prescription? Are there any over-the-counter drugs available for narcolepsy?

I’m interested because I’m doing a study for a short documentary on narcolepsy.

does anyone have shift work sleep disorder?




i read in a prescribing book that there is such a thing as shift work sleep disorder. I’m wondering if it’s true and what they actually prescribe as drugs for it. If anyone has this let me know what your symptoms were and what they put you on. I seriously think i have this.

How dangerous is a severe caffeine addiction?




I have been drinking the equivalent of eight, sometimes nine cups a day (also in the form of espresso and No Doz) because I am a college student and cannot make it through my studies without a stimulant. I have had horrible insomnia all of my life (without the influence of any caffeine or drugs) and started drinking coffee in college because I can’t academically afford to always be exhausted and have no energy. But now it is backfiring…
Are there any serious health effects of my addiction, besides the obvious crashes?
Also, this has been going on for a couple of months.

I am going on a flight for 11 hours going and 13 hours coming back. I really want to sleep on the plane so I was thinking about taking some medicine to make me go to sleep. I here taking Benadryl just for sleeping is bad due to the side effects. Also my parents are kind of nervous giving me any type of sleeping medicine, so what are the side effects of the drugs. Also how long does it take for the medicine to go in effect.

I was recently switched to a drug that has a very major side effect of making me sleep too long and I consistently wake up tired. On weekends, I sleep from 9 pm to noon, and still wake up tired. I am used to going to bed at midnight and waking up around 0530 AM, with no problems at all. But these drugs seem to just drag me down. Is there something that I can take that will help with these problems? Would Valerian root help?

Any suggestions on how to sleep better?




I don’t want to take drugs or pills. I have never had trouble sleeping, but I can’t stay asleep lately. I wake up too early in the morning and I am tired all day then. I am so flustered please help.
I do have a lot of stress in my life that may be a major cause of why I can’t sleep most evenings.
