Does anyone find Nardil makes them snore?
Whilst on Nardil, I snored virtually every night. I can never recall haveing snored like this before. It did my girlfriends head in! It was so bad even I was aware of it - it would often wake me up! I would often 'drift off' whilst on a train, bus, or even the cinema, and awake with people looking at me oddly. My GP told me there was nothing he/I could do (except try strapping a tennis ball to my back - apparently to prevent me from sleeping on my back!!!). Corticosteroid nasal sprays didn't help.
But since I've stopped taking Nardil, my partner says I no longer snore and I'm certainly no longer aware that I do.
I'm to start Nardil again this Thursday (for SP) and I am/she is dreading this coming back.
Interestingly, I came accross something called apnoea/hypopnoea during a web browse. It fits my symptoms exactly, even if mine are Nardil - induced. Also it seems that Modafinil is prescribed for this condition so I will ask my pdoc about it (dont know if its available in uk). It sounds ideal as it may also help with the excessive daytime sleepiness I get with Nardil.
Anyone know if Nardil + Modafinil combo is safe?
ANY comments or suggestions please. Thanks.
