Brief Answer: it is ok, start with a low dose Detailed Answer: Hello & welcome to hcm! You can take adrafinil with the medicines you are already taking. There is usually no major intraction. The only thing to take care of is- that adrafinil may increase anxiety in some people, espically who are already anxious. However, if you were good/ keepin fine on on modafinil ( if you took it anytime) then it is almost ceratin that you will be fine with this too. It is recommended to be taken in empty stomach and the effect comes in 30-45 minutes ( slighly delayed compare to modafinil). So, please donot worry so much, start with a low dose in morning. Wish you good health! Hope the relpy is useful for you. Please feel free to ask more questions for clarification. Dr. Manisha Gopal MD Psychiatry

Brief Answer: Doesn't have any major interaction with Lipitor Detailed Answer: Hello, As I mentioned there is no need to fear as there is no reported major interaction associated with adrafinil with any one of the drugs you are taking currently. Even Lipitor is safe to continue along with adrafinil. I have even cross checked it for you , so please Donot worry. Start with low dose and see how does your body react to it. I'm more concerned about the anxiety part which may occur in few cases with adrafinil and modafinil. So, if you get anxiety or restlessness after taking it, don't panic - it would be related to this new molecule and will go away with time. If such happens then it will be best to avoid this drug. Please feel free to ask more queries if you have. Dr. Manisha Gopal MD psychiatry
