> Elise - has your doctor educated you on the time course it may take to see an effect of reducing your prozac? Prozac has a humongously long half life in the body, and any dose reduction may take up to 2 weeks to show an effect, especially just from 30 to 20. This may be why you still have such bad problems with jumpiness. Prozac also may interfer with the liver's ability to clean other medications out of your system, and may be increasing blood levels of some of these drugs - I'm not familiar enough with the metabolism pathways of provigil to be sure, but this is somethng else to ask your pdoc to look into. Good luck -sometime it takes more time than ADD folks feel they can give to a problem!
