Advice & Tips
I took this drug as a mood elevator and for general energy enhancement. It was a plus that it may have also helped with my sleep apnea. Clearly, I was functioning better at work when I had this medicine in my system. All in all, I had a very positive experience with Provigil.

Advice & Tips
Provigil has helped me to stay awake for longer periods of time. When there are days that I am totally exhausted, I can fall asleep even though I have taken the proper dose. I also find that this medication effects me differently on different days, sometimes it keeps me awake, sometimes I can fall asleep even though I've taken the proper dose, and sometimes it makes me hyperactive and I can't sleep all day and all night.
Cost
$25-49 monthly
