I'm agreeing with you Crazy Horse I'd have thought it was much higher.
Provigil was developed from anafranil, which was specifically developed to keep military personnel awake and alert for longer periods when under battle or other stressful situations of long duration.
Really I wonder if they do use various medications like this for the troops. How else can they keep on going, with conditions of warfare? Extreme dissociative states, I guess-- which is why so many have serious emotional problems after they return.
It's a terrible situation.
