Nuvigil Side Effects Bloody Stool

REPORT

Based on my research, dark urine and/or clay-colored stools, are both listed as severe side effects of Nuvigil (Armodafinil) that should be reported to your doctor immediately.

Although I'm personally not aware of just how serious these types of side effects can be, it is likely that it may not go away until you stop taking what's causing it in the first place. So the sooner you're able to contact your doctor, he or she can then recommend other alternative medications in the meantime.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Nuvigil Details

I hope this helps!

Thanks for your reply. I have since contacted my pharmacist who said this is not an uncommon side effect. I felt better hearing that but at the same time found no mention of it on the Internet. Ill follow up on Monday with the dr. The pharmacist also said if it continues to consult the dr. Ill post what I find out in case others have the same issue. Thanks again!!

Hi, Did you find out more info from your doctor? I have also just had a bloody stool, on my first day after using Armodafinil. Thanks.

I am a shift worker but my regular doctor will not prescribe. Does anyone have any suggestion of a doctor who does in the Portland Oregon area. My doctor seem to think coving the window ( which I already do) is the fix for everything.
