Not yet. It had an extension on the patent for some reason or another and isn't due for generic until 2015. However, I think they reached a settlement with specified generic manufacturers for sometime in 2012. I recently spoke to the nurse at my sleep doctor's office who said that the generic won't be significantly cheaper than Provigil.
She also said that insurance companies are getting pretty picky about paying for Provigil.
I'm really looking forward to the day a reasonably priced generic will be released.
