Nuvigil, which is generically known as Armodafinil, is a stimulant-like drug produced by Cephalon, and it is approved by the FDA to treat narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder, and obstructive sleep apnea. However, it was not approved by the FDA to treat jet-lag. Like the similar drug Provigil, Nuvigil might have some very serious side effects.

Nuvigil side effects might include the following:

• Nausea
• Lack of Appetite
• Insomnia
• High Blood Pressure
• Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS)
• Nervous System Disorder
• Gastrointestinal Problems
• Toxicity in Pregnant Women
• Nervous System Disorder

Nuvigil has been introduced relatively recently, and there have not yet been many Nuvigil lawsuits; however, there are good reasons to believe that this potentially unsafe drug could cause serious injuries.

Of the side effects listed above, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome is the most serious. In effect, the syndrome causes cell death and skin to peel off from the body. If Nuvigil causes SJS – like Provigil did – then those who have taken this drug might be entitled to compensation. Additionally, there is a possibility that Nuvigil might cause the more serious version of SJS – Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN).
