Will NoDoz (Maximum Strength) affect your sleep?

From 200 mg, NoDoz needs around ten hours to fall under 50 mg, so an afternoon caplet can still be active at bedtime. Take it too late and it can easily delay sleep.

Heads up
At 200 mg, a second NoDoz (Maximum Strength) in a day pushes you toward the FDA’s 400 mg ceiling — and that’s before any coffee or tea. Log everything in the calculator to see your real daily total.
