Try ephedrine, which is usually marketed as a weight loss drug. (Some popular brands are Xenadrine or Hydroxycut) It is the side effects that interest those who want to stay awake -- ephedrine gives you a buzz much stronger than caffeine (especially since most products with ephedrine also include caffeine)
There are some brands specifically marketed as energy pills though, like Dmetadrine Xtreme from AST-SS. Choose your poison.
The health effects really aren't well known at this point -- there have been reports of people dying of heart failure after using ephedrine, though I personally don't give much credence to that (it seems more a case of false correlation than anything else)My personal experience is that it works, YMMV.
