Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Modawake is a wakefulness-promoting agent drug. It changes certain substances located in the area of the brain that controls sleep and wakefulness. It may improve cognitive function, i.e., mental performance, by making you more alert and awake. It is useful for people who need to reset their sleep-wake cycle.
Modawake is used to treat different types of sleep disorders. The dosage depends on your condition and how your body responds to the treatment. For example, if you have narcolepsy or sleep apnea, your doctor will probably advise you to take it in the morning. For shift work sleep disorder, take it before your work shift starts. This will help increase productivity and alertness when needed.
Modafinil may increase alertness, which can help users study longer without feeling sleepy. They may have enhanced focus and improved cognitive skills. However, its non-medical use (e.g., as a "study drug," “smart drug,” or "smart pills") is not yet universally approved. Some researchers at Harvard and Oxford universities refer to it as the "world's first safe smart drug." They suggest that it may not involve a lot of risk if used in the short term. However, they also suggest that it can cause side effects like skin rashes and insomnia. Also, we don't have enough data to confirm if it is safe for long-term use as a "study drug." Take it as your doctor tells you to, for safe and optimal results.
You should avoid this medication if you have certain health conditions or are already taking certain medicines. For example, if you have angina (chest pain) or had a recent heart attack, avoid using this drug. Read the information provided on the medicine leaflet, label, and package carefully.
