I had tried switching to Nuvigil (instead of Adderall) and the Nuvigil (kinda like Provigil) really bothers my sinuses. I get a terrible headache and my nose gets all stopped up. It's a great med, but the side effects for me suck.
I have had to switch back to a tiny dose of Adderall 5mg XR. This in combo with a small dose of Seroquel at night (which helps me get great sleep) seems to be working. I think the great sleep is a big thing if you have any type of mood issues.
I have also found that if I work out in the morning, it really helps my BPII. The only problem I notice is on the weekends when I don't work out I have to take an extra Klonopin to keep my mood even.
It's all so complicated, but it all works out well together.
Having BPII ad ADD is hard.
