>I have been pondering taking adrafinil again. I took it years ago with great results. It breaks down primarily to the metabolite provigil. Provigil itself is not an option since at the moment I do not have insurance. My thoughts have been in the direction of low dose SJW+low dose Adrafinil+low dose benzo and try to get ride of the 2.5mg zyprexa.
