What's the opposite of 'soporific'?

Solution 1:

It's not exactly the same, since it has meanings other than just non-drowsy, but you can probably use:

invigorating: adj. making one feel strong, healthy, and full of energy.

When talking about a soporific in terms of the noun, a drug that makes you drowsy, the opposite of that would be a stimulant, so you may also be able to use stimulating as an antonym. To me, though, that often has too much of an over-active ot hyper-active connotation to it.

Solution 2:

awakening

Solution 3:

This is quite awhile ago, I see; but my advice is that your use of the "bedroom's effect" should be described as lacking the soporific effect that it is supposed to have.
