what to expect from Provigil?

Posted by IAMtheWalrus on July 2, 2008, at 16:44:23

I've been on Provigal for about five days (200mgs.) So far i haven't noticed anything-i'm taking it for fatigue. Does it take a while for it to 'kick in'? What have you experienced with Provigil?

It can definitely cause anxiety in those prone to it as it is similar to sympathomimetics like the amphetamine derivatives. Headache, nausea, and nervousness stand out as the primary side effects.

I won't inquire about it, I assume your doctor prescribed it, it is C-IV, the lowest level of dependence.

Just don't play with fire, Jan, while you're reducing the Valium at the same time. Usually two drug trials at the same time are not recommended. But its your perogative.
