Why is provigil so expensive?

I can get it prescribed, but is it really worth it?

Most certainly worth it. It's the name brand of a drug that is intended to be used to narcolepsy which is rare. Wife is on the generic, modafinil.

In that case I can see how it would be worth it. Doctors will procribe it for adhd also, and in that case I'm not sure if the difference between it and Adderall is worth it.

I was put on it and it did absolutely nothing for me. Each person has different responses to it, but I ended up getting on adderall 50mg a day and it has done wonders for me.

I haven't had any coffee yet and I read your title as "why is privilege so expensive?" I thought this thread was going to be good.

Yes it's worth it

Mine either, so I'd be looking at $500-$1000 per month for 30 100mg pills.

Curious as to why you need it.
Seriously, I'm only mildly familiar with it.

Speed Baw. What the USAF used to give the pilots flying combat.

Can't see how this is worth it for you.
Posted on 3/29/16 at 7:50 am to LSU-MNCBABY
For other things than what was mentioned. I guess I'll have to try it and see.

No. Try concentrating without a crutch for a change.

You have to have a prescription for Vagisil? Who knew?

If you were on Provigil you would have read it correctly.
I think you can get the generic from Canada for much cheaper.

How does this differ from Aderall? Seems I've heard some people on here say it's like that drug on Limitless(not to that extreme of, course), but super focus without the amphetamine side-effects. How does it make you feel?

That's what I've heard, so I'd like to see how much of a difference it is.

It is a huge difference just as previously stated. It does not give you the loss of appetite, major crash, BO smell, etc.
Its not a drug to keep you wired or stay awake, it is simply to give you better focus. There is a reason why its called the fighter pilot medicine.
Also its extreme price was due to an increase in CEO's and getting it prescribed
