Provigil For Add?
Posted: 08-29-07 18:10pm

http://en.wikipedia.org/w iki/Modafinil

Its prescribed off-label for ADD/ADHD, but mainly used for narcolepsy.
I was thinking about trying this drug to help me concentrate, also to keep me from sleeping 12hrs a day.
I dont have narcolepsy, but for the past 6months I been sleeping too long and still feeling tired when a wake up.

Has anyone tried Provigil for ADD or ADHD, have you found it to be effective? It seems to have alot less side-effects than other ADD drugs.
