No, the pseudoephedrine does not help tremendously. It gives me more energy. I also take a beta blocker, so maybe that is why I don't have many bad side effects from it. But it doesn't help a lot with focus.
I find that 1 pill is not enough and 2 pills makes me too speedy. I don't want the speedy "high", but rather the focus and energy (I always feel tired). The pseudoephedrine helps some....I can focus more on the work I'm doing....BUT it comes along with a "high" that I don't want. Maybe I just have to find a way to tweak my meds with it.
Dopamine is impacted upon by Wellbutrin and also anti-psychotics. I've tried both, and they make my heart race. But I wasn't using a beta blocker at the time. Maybe I could tolerate Wellbutrin now. Just need a backbone to mention it to my doctor.
