Tecfidera

Does anyone feel like their tecfidera keeps them awake at night? I have a lot of trouble falling asleep, and feel as though the tecfidera may be the reason.

At night I take, gabapentin, Baclophen, melatonin, and a capful of zzz quil. If I have pain, I will also take a toradol. Sleep like a rock.

When I first started I quit my LDN and didn't sleep for 3 days. I got my LDN refilled and now I sleep pretty well but I have simply sleep on hand if I need it.

Hi
I have been on TECFIDERA before it approved by the FDA but only half doseage, one pill daily. My sleep hasn't changed before or after but I don't sleep much. Just naps
Good luck and be well.
