  • EfficacyMajor
  • Side-effectsNone
  • AdherenceAlways
  • BurdenNone
  • Fatigue
Advice/Tips
Provigil has enabled me to stay awake and function all day, without it I fall asleep when I am sitting down longer than 15 minutes. I am still able to nap or rest, even if I just took it and it does not make me nervous or jittery.
