It would be interesting to know if taking Provigil (modafinil) would be equally antagonistic to the hypnotic effects of zolpidem.Speaking of orexin, I recently read something that suggested orexinergic activity might be partially responsible for the experience of reward and reward-seeking behavior. I wish I could remember where I saw it. Perhaps it is through orexin that modafinil produces its antidepressant effects, and not through glutamate. Maybe manipulating orexin would help in the treatment of substance abuse.
