It is highly unlikely Nuvigil will be detected in a regular drug test. This is because drug tests have now been adapted to include these kinds of drugs in the test. As long as you are not taking any other drugs, you should receive a negative test result.

However, it would still be sensible to err on the side of caution and let the testing authority know you are taking Nuvigil. This prevents any confusion or misapprehension. Of course, drug screening specifically for the drug Nuvigil could be carried out, as it is detectable in your system.

  • Nuvigil

Nuvigil - or to give the drug its generic name, Armodafinil - is designed to promote alertness in those who suffer from moderate to serious sleeping problems. It is regularly prescribed by a doctor to those unable to get sufficient sleep at night. The drug contains powerful chemicals that affect the brain and lead the individual to feel fresh and awake.

Of course, Nuvigil provides only a short term solution. In the long term, the sleeping issues themselves must be addressed. Sleeplessness is often caused by stress and even paranoia. Sometimes the sufferer develops a mental block when it comes to sleeping after being unable to sleep for a few nights. This in itself means they require medication in order to get to sleep.

Sleeplessness could also be caused by pains, stomach aches or itchy skin. If this is the case, these health problems should be dealt with separately.

  • Possible side effects of Nuvigil

Nuvigil can cause a variety of possible side effects, as any type of medication can. Common side effects include headaches, sore throats and chills. In more severe cases, yellowing of the skin and vomiting may occur. If this is the case, stop taking the drug and seek medical attention immediately.
