In reply to Provigil vs Dexedrine: Experiences Wanted, posted by Thrud on April 4, 2002, at 1:44:47

Thrud, if my only problem was the ADD, I'd be happy with Dexedrine alone, but seeing I have narcolepsy & have to fight the constant sleepiness, I prefer Provigil.

There's ways to counteract the peaks & valleys with pstims that's worked fairly well for me. I broke the Dexedrine tablet (it's flat & easy to break) into 2 pieces, one slightly bigger than the other. I then took the larger piece first, then shortly afterwards (maybe 15-30 minutes later) ate, & then took the other piece. Sort of doing my own sustained release version which worked better than the Spansules. The first part got into my system faster on the empty stomach, then the 2nd piece was absorbed slower due to food in me.

Second dosing in the afternoon, I'd do the same thing but took the larger piece at the time the first larger piece was supposed to be wearing off. Made it much smoother without any mid-afternoon sag. By the end of the day, I'd feel bushed though, till around 10:00 PM when I ALWAYS got a second wind but logically I knew I should be getting ready for bed then.
