In reply to Of these 2, which meds for brain fog?, posted by Evey on March 7, 2016, at 18:39:56
Provigil gave me incredible brain-fog and cognitive blunting. These effects began soon after starting it, and persisted for 2-3 weeks after discontinuation. If Provigil is indeed the culprit, you might not see an amelioration of cognitive side effects for a few weeks. Hopefully, it would be immediate for you.
Lamictal can produce brain-fog and problems with memory, but this seems to occur in only a minority of people or at higher dosages. Many experience these things as startup side effects that disappear over time. 150 mg/day is not a high dosage. Most people find 200 mg/day to be effective. After some experimentation, I arrived at 300 mg/day as optimal for me.
