Armodafinil, the generic name for Waklert 150mg, is used to treat drowsiness caused by narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It can be used in combination with other treatments for OSA.
Waklert acts as a wake-inducing drug by releasing dopamine in the brain. Those who suffer from sleep apnea are more likely to remain awake and attentive during the day thanks to this treatment. However, it does not address the underlying issues, such as airway blockage, that lead to sleep apnea.
CPAP therapy, together with improvements in lifestyle and weight control, continues to be the gold standard for treating obstructive sleep apnea. Waklert is used to treat drowsiness that persists despite CPAP treatment, or to improve alertness when CPAP is not an option. For help with sleep apnea and medicine, it's best to go to a doctor.
