  • What organ does narcolepsy affect?

    Posted by amelia martin on April 23, 2025 at 6:18 am

    The primary brain region affected by narcolepsy is the one that controls the sleep-wake cycle. The loss of neurones in the hypothalamus, a region essential for regulating REM sleep and sustaining alertness, that produce hypocretin (orexin) is frequently associated with this illness. Narcolepsy sufferers therefore endure abrupt shifts into REM sleep and severe daytime tiredness. The brain is stimulated by medications such as Artvigil 150, which includes armodafinil, to increase alertness and lessen sleep episodes. By addressing the neurological symptoms of narcolepsy, Artvigil 150 helps people manage their wakefulness and improves their everyday functioning, even while it doesn’t cure the disorder.
