> I have been on Ritalin, Provigil (Modafinil), Dexedrine, and Adderall. All have helped except for Modafinil. I could hardly feel it do anything. There were no side effects and no crash, as well as no "medicated feeling". But it wasn't effective. I would take either 200 or 400 mg hoping it would help me stay awake but it was never successful. I could sleep on it very easily which didn't help. Modafinil stimulates the brain stem. It doesn't work much on dopamine like other stimulants. But for some people, it's all they need and it works wonders. I experienced no significant side effects if any. It's worth a try i suppose.
Hi I tried provigil didn't keep me awake made me drowsy and weak very floggy headed and extremely painful muscles and flu like syndome--outside of that it was a wonderful medicine .
