In reply to How to Take Provigil T/O the Day for Max Effect?, posted by Falstaff on December 20, 2007, at 6:48:03
Not sure what you could do. I like to browse sites where patients review and rate their meds. Poopout and after-fatigue were common with provigil. I remember one guy did best at 1200mg a day! Opposite of logic, you could try a reverse loading dose. That is, start the day with a small dose, then make the second dose of the day the primary heavy hitter. Or maybe try 50mg every 2 hours, or 100mg every 3 hours, or something like that for a steady blood level. I guess you just gotta play around with it in every manipulation you can think of.
While all the focus is on provigil, I personally found that the drug it was invented from...adrafinil...was much better in terms of antidepressant, antifatigue, antianhedonia, and antipoopout. I think if I added up all the comments of people who have tried both adrafinil and provigil, 50% preferred adrafinil and 50% preferred modafinil. Anyway, they are similar and you might want to keep adrafinil on your watch list. Unlike provigil, adrafinil is dirt cheap.
