Amphetamine is the obvious choice.
On the more legal side there is caffeine.
Try coffee, I prefer guarana somehow it's more mellow and doesn't stress me out as much.
Tyrosene is very useful for maintaining alertness too, you should be able to get this from a health-food shop or chemists.
I wouldn't advise to tall a stack of stimulants if you want to keep your sanity for the duration.
You'll feel like poop after any all-nighter though because you need to pay back for ripping your body off it's sleep.
Good luck.

If you get enough sleep then you should not have any trouble staying awake, but we all have night were we just dont rest good. I could tell you to go out and buy some illegal drug but I wont. The best thing I know to help you is coffee or tea.

I've used No Dose which u can buy at Wal-Mart or any local drug store. I had to travel 31 hours with a 14ft. U-haul once and ended up doing 40 hrs. on one hour of sleep. This stuff was like taking coffee in extra large dosages. It also keeps u from feeling hungry if it's all u r eating. If u know what I mean. It worked for me. There's also Vivarian (msp?). Basically, they are caffeine pills.

Methamphetamine can keep users up for days at a time.
MDMA (Ecstasy) will keep you up for more than 24 hours.
Cocaine is also a stimulant.
And nicotine from tobacco is too.
But your safest and most legal bet would be caffeine
Pills like No-Doz, 357 Magnums, Yellow Jackets, and even Excedrin may agitate the stomach.
So try coffee, or an energy or soft drink such as Red Bull, Monster, or Vault.

Amphetamines are often used to stay awake - my mother was a nurse and occasionally used it when cramming for the finals for all night revision!
It shouldnt have to be said that they're also illegal drugs and can kill. IF someone was going to take speed and wouldnt listen to advice of why they shouldnt I'd tell them to take cool drinks and try not to overheat because the body can overheat fatally under such drug use.
Caffeine is safer, cheaper and much more readily available.

It's called sleep.
You have plenty each night (and sometimes mid afternoon) in the period leading up to the time you wish to wake refreshed.
It can be addictive, though! I have about 8 hours each night. And I feel great the next day. You don't need a presciption and you don't end up having some from a dubious source.
Oh, and it is not illegal.

Crack Cocaine........is for people like me that put it in its place after three years of smoking the shiit.
Most of the people I have seen that take crap to stay awake are actually losing the point of strengths where drugs are not needed.
The key to staying awake is sleep before work

caffine is one of the best stimulants which have very few associated risks as long as you do not have a heart condition. in the uk you can buy pro plus tablets from a supermarket or pharmacy .side effects cause a headache, and raises the pulse and blood pressue.
