sleepiness associated with narcolepsy with or without cataplexy.

and an increased likelihood of falling asleep in
inappropriate situations.

Patient monitoring and clinical assessment of the need for treatment
should be performed on a periodic basis.
Posology
The recommended starting daily dose is 200 mg. The total daily dose
may be taken as a single dose in the morning or as two
doses, one in the morning and one at noon, according to physician
assessment of the patient and the patient's response.
Doses of up to 400mg in one or two divided doses can be used in
patients with insufficient response to the initial 200mg
modafinil dose.
