>IsoM,
I only tried one dose of adrafinil- 4 pills once and then lost all the adrafinil pills somehow during a move. I have an appointment with a new psychiatrist who is an expert in psychopharmacology, I will ask him for either Provigil or Focalin (the new improved d-isomer only Ritalin). But since I had no effect from that one dose of Adrafinil (4 pills) I am worried that I will try Provigil & it will be a waste of a month where I could have gotten alot more work done with Focalin- i've heard people on here complain that provigil didn't do anything for them. Did adrafinil take a couple of weeks to start working for you or did it work immediately?Also, I there is no reason to use Adrafinil anymore. I found a canadian pharmacy that sells Alertec, which is Canadian for Provigil. They only sell 100 mg pills for US $54 so you will have to buy $108 dollars worth to achieve the normal dose of Provigil 200 mg each morning, but shipping is only $10. Provigil is not only stronger than adrafinil but better for your liver.
3 Beer Effect, I'm not pushing adrafinil/modafinil on you but am curious to its effect on you. Did you get side-effects from it, or did it simply not work? I'm also curious how long a trial you tried it for?
