Yes I've personally taken Naphazoline eyedrops and have gotten a strong response. It is like the one I get from reboxetine. I also have read reprots from two CFIDs doctors on the use of naphazoline.
Note, for myself and many others, tolerance for Naph.'s effects build up rapidly, so the effect that was there at the start may rapidly become impossible to replicate.
Naphazoline and reboxetine act on both central and periphereal alpha1 andrenergics receptors, thus such periphereal receptor stimulation symptoms like raised BP and increased sweating. Adrafinil, even it does have alpha1 agonism, may be just centrally acting. But it is the central action that I presume is responsible for the cognitive (and mood) effects of Naph.
