Provigil - Trustworthy Non-U.S. Source
August 14, 2013 7:50 PM Subscribe
I'm one of the small number of people who actually have narcolepsy. I fall asleep while working, eating, reading, and even driving, so I can't spell my wife on long trips. Two specialists have run tests and confirmed the diagnosis. They have prescribed Provigil (Modafinil), and my pharmaceutical plan, which requires prior approval, has accepted the prescriptions. Oh, and it works.
The problem is the drug is a controlled substance, due mostly to Harvard students who pop it and Adderall so they can study 23 hours a day. Thus it's on my plan's shit list. The patent has expired, but even for the generic, the co-pay is close to $300 a month.
I get most of my prescriptions filled at a reliable Canadian pharmacy, where the prices are a fraction of those in the U.S., but they say they're forbidden to ship controlled substances to the U.S.
There are of course hundreds of web sites that offer Provigil, but certainly 99% are fraudulent. I need an honest, reliable source that can give me what I need at a price I can afford. I know it can't be in Canada, but perhaps someone can give me a source elsewhere.
In a prior thread, someone wrote that the maker is trying to switch users to the related Nuvigil. I'm perfectly willing to try it, but it's still under patent, so I'll probably end up paying more.

This post was deleted for the following reason: I don't think there is going to be any legal way to do this. You may need to make the question into a "How do I solve this problem" question rather than a "How do I get this in a way that is certainly not legal" one. -- jessamyn
