I used to deal with that evening zombie mode, i couldnt keep my eyes open if i tried it was terrible, it would come right at 3hrs after taking my meds, i would fall asleep at work at my desk on the phone even, i dealt with it for about 2 months then came to the conclusion, " theirs no way i can go on tired like this " and told my Doctor, he said ok instead of taking the meds when i wake up, i take them when i go to sleep, when i wake up i dont feel drugged up and it stays with me all day i do double the dose, i can feel the meds starting to ware off late in the evening a perfect time too, maybe you can come to some type of solution like that.
being tired when meds kick in could cause you all kinds of problems trying to function & think rite durring the day.

It may seem silly but it really helped him through the rough patch.
