Important safety considerations include discussing your full medical history with your doctor, especially regarding heart conditions, high blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, mental health issues, or if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Provigil can interact with several medications, including birth control pills (ethinyl estradiol), cyclosporine, and omeprazole. Store the medication at room temperature away from light and moisture.
