What medication is used for narcolepsy?

Patient's question:

Before graduating from university, everything was fine, and I really enjoyed participating in activities. I no longer experienced the situation of suddenly dozing off, falling asleep during naps and not waking up, or falling asleep abruptly. However, after graduating from university and starting to work, I sometimes suddenly fell asleep at work, not knowing what happened. I have had narcolepsy for many years. Can it be treated? What medication should I take? I never had this situation before.

Doctor's answer:

This depends on the severity of your specific condition. It is best to go to the hospital for relevant and thorough examinations to identify the cause. After that, under the guidance of clinical doctors, symptomatic treatments should be carried out. Additionally, it is recommended to develop good living and dietary habits, persist in exercising, and improve your physical fitness. Health is the most important thing, and nutrition should be comprehensive and balanced in your diet.
