I definitely find it helps me. Over a long period of time, it's become less helpful and I've had to increase the dose. But in four years of use, I haven't gone up all that much.
Every once in a while, I still have to supplement it with some serious caffeine. I prefer Provigil, since it doesn't leave me nauseous or jittery the way caffeine does. I'm really not at all aware I've taken it, except that I'm not asleep.
If the darn thing would be made generic, I might be able to be prescribed enough to work without needing the caffeine supplementation. But my insurance company balks at even 1 1/2 pills a day. They'd never go for two.
