> Has anyone had any success appealing United Healthcare to pay for provigil? After trying several dosage levels, I found 500mg to be very effective. UHC, however, is giving me a hard time saying that the FDA has not approved 500mg doses.

It is a very expensive drug. I think some of UHC's policies on medication are inane, but I can perhaps see their point on this one. Personally, I have had to switch some medications myself because of copay issues with UHC. If it were me, I would probably try to find a cheaper alternative, such as one of the Schedule II stimulants.Todd
