"I used Methylin ER for 3 months. I used the equivalent of a 90-day prescription (one 20 mg once a day) for 3 months. I did not use the pill every day due to illnesses and migraines. Who wants to be alert for that? When I did take it, it was a different life for me. I could actually plan what task I would complete that day instead of 'watch and wait' as it has always been for me with narcolepsy. I am a stay-at-home mom with a 3-year-old and a 14-year-old. As a result, my house was cleaner, I was more predictable energy-wise. I did sleep lighter and occasionally woke up at night. It was not bothersome, though not enough to stop it. Then the unfortunate happened: I became allergic to it (I am also allergic to Nuvigil and Provigil)."
