Does anyone take provigil with benzos??
I am wondering how much they would compromise the effect of Provigil.

I take provigil with klonopin and it still works just as well as without the klonopin. On paper, it seems that a benzo would counteract provigil, so it could be just me, but Ive noticed others on both who seem happy with the combo too.

Provigil was fine with Klonopin for me, and the Klonopin didn't seem to diminish Provigil's alerting effects. I don't notice anything with Klonopin except a general reduction in anxiety, and have taken it with a variety of other meds quite successfully.
