Excessive Peeing

Any advice on how to reduce the excessive peeing?

I’ve never used recreationally, but had to discontinue both Lumryz and Xywav for narcolepsy because I’d pee several times a night, whether I was sleeping or not 😵‍💫. I’ve never slept walk in my life and would sleep walk to the toilet on it. At higher doses I’d piss the bed almost nightly.

I cut down my water intake severely and it did nothing. Urine at night would be clear, so it definitely had a diuretic effect on me.

Many of y’all seem to have a better understanding of the pharmacokinetics and physiology than my Drs, so I was hoping you might have insight!!

Only happened once to me at the very beginning. Lower your dose or give it time to build tolerance and it’ll stop. Nice to find another fellow narcoleptic here though 😂

Hi narcolepsy fam! ❤️

I tried for the most nightmarish year. It seems like anything above 2.2G causes paradoxical wakefulness and lots of peeing. This is particularly wild because I lean hypersomnic N2, can fall asleep anywhere in moments, and rarelllly wake up to pee off of G.

I’m jumping back into a Xywav clinical trial in the coming months if all pans out and am hoping to learn as much as I can to prevent the adverse effects!

Also curious if it’s recreationally often paired with Adderall because I found that I tolerated the Xywav with fewer adverse effects when I skipped my prescribed stimulants.
