What Causes Dizziness And Anxiety Post Modafinil Usage?
Question: hi i have got a question regarding modafinil drug that is claimed to be able to enhance focus and energy.. 2 weeks ago, it used for like 5 days in a row and i felt really dizzy, shaky, anxious, and kinda high. After i quit it, i still feel the effects up to know even it is not as worse as it was 2 weeks ago.. it also kinda ruins my verbal fluency and my word recall and selection are getting terrible.. Do u know if there is any way i can get rid of this feeling? Thank you
Brief Answer:
Symptoms are psychological
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
The medication effects do not last for ore than a week . Since it has been 2 weeks past dosage, i believe the symptoms you have more of psychological rather than organic.
Need not worry, do not concentrate on the symptoms, try to forget the issue and concentrate on other aspects. This is very common entity and is not serious and will wane off over time.
Drink green tea and Cranberry juice this will remove all left out toxic metabolites from the body.
Hope, I answered your query.
