Found this, think I'm safe as far as stimulation goes.
"In fact, the Army found that Provigil worked no better than the amount of caffeine you received in a big cup of Starbucks coffee. But soldiers on the battlefield don't get their caffeine in a cup of coffee, they use caffeine gum for low doses across many hours. They even admit it kept people awake 1.7 minutes longer than coffee."

"
At least half -- and some say as much as 90 percent -- of Provigil's sales are for off-label use, though, or conditions not approved by the FDA."great med.
