According to you, your diagnosis is Narcolepsy. Your history is inadequate to reach a diagnosis. Adderal is not available in India. Methylphenidate( concerts) is the only option among psychostimulants available to us here. You may try an immediate release Indian formulation like Inspiral which has worked better for some of my patients with Narcolepsy and ADHD. Your doctor can guide you further.
