Patient's question:
Can it treat narcolepsy? Some people may not fully understand this disease. In short, this disease means that as soon as it occurs, no matter where you are, you can fall asleep immediately. I should say, you can pass out immediately, just like falling asleep. This really bothers me.Doctor's answer:
Narcolepsy is a chronic sleep disorder of unknown cause, characterized by sudden and irresistible episodes of deep sleep. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as fainting and sudden collapse. Medications such as central stimulants, pemoline, and amphetamines can be prescribed under medical advice to reduce daytime sleepiness. Additionally, traditional Chinese medicine can be used to boost qi, and dietary changes can include increasing carbohydrates to enhance nutrition, maintaining a regular sleep schedule, and consuming more fruits and vegetables.
