Barely dreaming on medication is something people report, and it does not by itself show that dreams have been medically switched off or turned more intense. Stimulants often disrupt sleep. The NHS lists trouble sleeping with methylphenidate, and labels commonly include insomnia. If the change is persistent, distressing, or affecting daily functioning, bring a brief timeline to the prescribing clinician rather than changing the dose independently.
