My neuro wrote me a script for Provigil, 60 pills. I've never used but have been having trouble with fatigue & focus.
The cost was over $1400. With insurance. Apparently they need additional authorization from my neuro. But I have no idea what that will bring the cost to.
I know that Provigil has become known as a new "smart drug" for normal, healthy people (ABC article 6 days ago made it sound like people are using it to code for 12 hours straight or push themselves in high pressure jobs) but now this messes it up for people who need it.
Makes me very very angry.
