Concerta, Ritalin, or Adderall 

I currently take Concerta for lethargy, I have a hard time staying awake for work. I work nights from 10pm - 7 am. I used to take Provigil, and that worked good. But my insurance no longer covers it, and they only cover what I have listed. Does anyone have any recommendations as to which would work? I get a lot of headaches from Concerta, and wonder if that side affect will go away after awhile.

If you're trying to stay awake for work, take Adderall. It will keep you awake, but can make you a bit angry!

Have you tried any healthier things to help you keep awake?
I have been using FRSplus and it makes a huge difference in how alert I am.

As far as those 3 drugs, I have no idea but I hope you find something that works the best for you.
