Provigil's main action is on alpha 1, but I am not sure if benzos mess with that though.i am under the impression that klonopin would lessen the provigil too. I think Provigil is more of a dopaminergic med, from some of the research I've looked at. It has reinforcing properties.
My pdoc recommended caffeine for the increased tiredness of Klonopin. At least I'm familiar with its effects; it does little to increase my anxiety level. He said i would get tolerance to the sedating effect before long. This already seems to be happening (I am taking .5 mg in the am).
