Wakix has been effective and keeping me awake, however there is no long term Data on it and I have experienced chest pain which may or may not be related to the drug.

Simply doesn't work and I had my hopes up. Been taking 2mos with no relief. Been taking full dose for 3wks and nothing. Why isn't this working?

Helped me wake in the morning. Felt almost normal, except appetite increased. Weight gain 25lb in a couple months. Doc took me off.

I've only been on the medication roughly a week. Do expect your anxiety to increase and to possibly have some shortness of breath. I forgot to take my dose one day and promptly noticed the difference in taking it and not taking it. Looking forward to stepping up to the next dosage and hoping it continues to work for me.
