In reply to focalin dosing, SE's, posted by mell on January 15, 2007, at 10:08:46
hi mell,
It sounds like the focalin is wearing off, except that you say it's only a couple of days a week. But I'm pretty useless in the evenings myself. How early are you taking it?
Since it's not happening daily... it 'could' mean something else is driving the fatigue, particularly you feel it's extreme.
Maybe consider food allergies? See if there's anything else you can see happening on those days... whether it's something you've eaten or drunk or even perhaps just been exposed to
sorry I couldn't be of more help
good luck!
namaste,
lilith> I've been on the 20mg Focalin XR about a week now. I have enough energy during the day, but on 2 or 3 of those days, I have become very sleepy at 8pm. Could this be focalin related? I'm really not sure. I suppose I should watch how things go over the next week or two, and that will help me to figure out if it's related or not. I'm wondering if others have had this happen and if that's why some people take a dose later in the day.
