Try eating some hard candy just before you take your dose. You also may try mixing it with orange juice. You may be sensitive to ingesting that amount of sodium at one time. You should get used to it.

Try to empty your mind when you lay down. Xyrem will induce sleep, but on the low dose you are taking, it is not a knockout drug. If you examine the testimony of the date rape culprits, these guys used 10 grams or more, and mixed it booze to boot.

It will take a while before your EDS changes. I was on it for a couple of months before I noticed the change.

Be patient. My doc says that the common dose amount is 4 grams. Once you get used to xyrem, you will look forward to the deep sleep it provides.
