I'm really shocked that your doctor would start you off with such a high dosage with a medication you've never taken before. 400mg is something people need to work up to, not start off with. I take 200mg a day, 100mg in the morning, 100mg at 2pm. Sometimes if I know I'm just going to be laying around in the evening, I won't take the 2nd dose.
As for the long term use of amphetamines, I can't say, I don't use them (Provigil isn't an amphetamine drug)..... Good luck!
