>Hi again Maniz,
Good questions. I have cut Adrafinil tabs in half. No problem. You could try that. You could take one half in a.m., one half at lunch, or just one half every day, or whatever is comfortable. I have taken Adrafinil with food and on an empty stomach. Seems to make no difference to me. Phenylalanine could cause overstimulation, but there's really only one way to find out. In general though taking supplements of various kinds, such as phenylalanine, has not been helpful to anyone here that I can recall over the years. I think it looks better on paper than it does in the real world. But who knows. In the world of psych treatments, I have come to realize that what my favorite pdoc always told me is true..."anything is possible".With Adrafinil I think one thing to keep in mind is that in my own experience I have found it is magically better as an ingredient in a cocktail than it is all by itself. It seems to have some kind of special synergy with Prozac, Zyprexa, Amisulpride, or any combo of them. Just something to keep in mind.
