I started slow release dexamphetamine ( Elvanse in uk 🇬🇧) this week for POTS & Dysautonomia as a result of so called Long Covid ( LC) from a Covid cold in March 2020.Â
18mg 5 minutes before bedtime. I have been sleeping well, although only for 6-7 hours. But the amazing thing is the low blood pressure has disappeared & the awful LC hangover & brain blanks are massively reduced.
however 18mg makes me feel too good, and messes with my Pacing Therapy. It’s ok to cut the capsules in 2 or unscrew the cap, as it’s a slow release power inside that is a pro-drug (ie it’s a chemical that only turns into an active drug once it’s undergone metabolic action in your gut / blood ).
I am definitely finding using it BEFORE bed is the most useful
