In reply to Modafinil (Provigil) Dosage Experience please...!, posted by Molybdenum on April 16, 2008, at 8:01:26
Some people are sensitive and find 100 mg sufficient. 200 mg once or twice daily is considered the standard dose. However, in ADHD trials higher doses were generally employed. Personally, I notice little difference between 200 and 800 mg.
I did feel definite effects of the first couple of doses of modafinil I took. I felt more alert, and I seemed to be thinking and acting more rationally and efficiently. All that is much more subtle now. Otherwise, however, I can't say there are any noticeable signs of tolerance.
As I've mentioned before, I don't find modafinil to be sufficient to get me started in the mornings (my definition of "morning": whenever I wake up).
I find modafinil to be a very subtle and discreet drug. However, I know it's working, as I've been up for over 24 h almost every time now for weeks. That wouldn't happen by chance, and there really is little else than modafinil to explain it (a single dose of methylphenidate would never last this long).
