In reply to Olmifon questions again : liver enzymes, posted by J. Lester on December 9, 2000, at 14:24:08
Hello John,
For liver protection and health, consider supplements of the herb Milk Thistle and also SAMe. Take the daily dose of Milk Thistle extract stated on the bottle, and one 200mg tab of SAMe per day, or one every other day. Both of these are very protective and rejuvenating for the liver.
Adrafinil helps me in an amazing way, similar to what you described. I'm glad to hear someone else is doing real well with it. For me, dozens of other medicines tried over many years didn't come anywhere close to working as well. I order a new supply when my current supply is only enough to last one month. Like you, I definitely would not want to go without!
You might want to get a liver test once every six months just to be on the safe side. Continuous use of Milk Thistle and SAMe should help keep everything normal. If your tests indicate elevated enzymes, you might have to lower your dose for a while so they can return to normal. Again though, I think the supplements I mentioned will be good insurance in preventing any problems.
I wish Adrafinil had some serious funding behind it. I could easily envision it taking over Prozac's popularity.
John
