Neuro gave me a sample of Provigil to boost energy level and offset fatigue. I am not big on taking meds. I need the input of those with experience with Provigil. Especially its side effects, do the pros offset the cons? Thanks and have a great day.

" I just started taking provigil today. If today is any indication, it is working great for me today anyway. I've had more energy today than the past 3 months combined. My doctor prescribed 200mg for me to be taken once a day. I hope it keeps working for me, as the fatigue was almost unbearable. I don't usually do well at all with taking medications, but so far for today anyway, I've not experienced any side effects. "
