Nuvigil vs Provigil

I tried Provigil, but it didn't do a thing. Would it be worth my time or $ to try Nuvigil? I'm also thinking of Sudafed (half).

Nuvigil or Provigil without insurance...

... I'm stuck trying to get this on my own. Does anyone know of any resources to get this at a reduced cost? I know about the reduced copay option for Nuvigil, but that requires actual insurance. The VA is not actual insurance. The cheapest I've found is about $330 for a month's supply of generic Provigil ...

Nuvigil

Have had apnea for 4 yrs now, also have several other medical problems. About a year ago I told my sleep specialist I had cronic fatigue and he put me on Nuvigil. Now when I stop taking it all I can do is sleep, stayed off 3 days one time and sleaped 3 days. Has anyone else had this withdrawal effect?
