What is Modafinil?
Modafinal
Also known under the brand names Provigil, Armodafinil, Waklert, Modavigil, Modalert and more, these drugs all consist of different ratios of the enantiomer. It’s a class of barbiturates which blew up after the film ‘Limitless’. Using a smart drug called NZT-48 the user manages to workout constantly at a breakneck pace, learn, remember and act with superhuman effectiveness.
Being a stimulant, Modafinil does help you to do some of these things, though the boost is more subtle than stronger drugs such as adderall or ritalin (amphetamines). It allows you to continue working through hunger, sleepiness and boredom by giving you a constant sense of wakefulness. As a consequence, you are able to maintain a steadier stream of focused consciousness.
Joe Rogan has admitted to taking it on days where he feels a little less energetic than usual, although we don’t recommend combining Weed and Modafinil as this has anecdotally been reported to lead to tough to break out of, negative thinking streaks. As for DMT? Your call, buddy.
How do modafinil and adderall differ you ask? It’s the sense of ‘urgency’ and drive you have to complete tasks, the amphetamines create more urgency and reward the user with more dopamine, they are generally more euphoric at lower doses as well.
Interestingly, modafinil has been shown to keep baseline IQ level the same for already gifted people, and boost those of people who are below the average. It has also been shown to reduce creativity, albeit with differing levels of statistical validity. If you’re going to use it, we recommend keeping a little journal of your use, like below:
| Dose / How | Time Taken | Drug | Noteworthy Occurrences |
|---|---|---|---|
| orally | 6 am 26/06/2019 | Modafinil | Needed to poo a lot |
| snorted | 6 am 22/06/2019 | Armodafinil | Stuffed sinuses all day, intense come up |
| Your Weight: | 69 kg |

How to take Modafinil
It’s taken as a small tablet, they vary depending on the particular type of afinil. The standard 200 mg Waklert pill is soft, so you can break it into quarters or further to distribute the dose. It’s produced by indian pharmacies, and they’ve had some dangerous reports in the past but it’s the cheapest and easiest to obtain option for most of the world.
The more expensive versions are brand name Nuvigil for armodafinil, and Provigil for modafinil and are manufactured by Cephalon. Most modafinil users settle for the cheaper generics.
We recommend: Starting at the lowest possible dose and working your way up to 200 mg. You might not need the entire pill!
Modafinil is a favourite of students, night shift workers and anyone looking for a short term solution to sleep deprivation. If you’re in need of focus, keep in mind that if you use Modafinil for revision, you should also use it for your exam. This is known as ‘state-dependent memory’.
- Key Points: Consistency is the key to learning and retrieval.
- Avoid too high a dosage as this can cause a high heart rate.
- Take it easy as Modafinil use can be dependence inducing. You’ll keep wanting to take it to maintain the sensation of alertness!
- We recommend taking it, for special moments of need like the Felix Felicis.
- Remember to drink enough water, and to eat enough. Especially if you’re taking it for successive days
Stacking Nootropics – Modafinil
Interested in increasing the effectiveness of modafinil? Stacking refers to using different nootropic drugs synergistically. Modafinil combines like Boltron with a little Fish Oil with DHEA, or Fish Oil and Choline. This stack keeps you calm, and by including choline supplementation you avoid Modafinil headaches. These can occur when choline levels get too low, for example after successive days of use. Remember to refuel the tank and take care of yourself whilst studying and working.
A key principle of drug use and of stacking is balance. It’s not about using lots of a given substance, but rather about combining them to manifest an effective sensation, or a desire to work. As such, start with low doses, especially with nootropics that can be bought in powder form. That way, you can find a dose that suits you best.

|---|---|---|---|
| Modafinil – 30 mg | Modafinil – 50 mg | 100 mg | 200 mg | 400 mg | 500 mg | Modafinil 30-60 mg | |
| Fish oil – 500 mg | Fish oil – 500 mg | Fish oil – 1000 mg | |
| Choline – 100 mg | DHEA – 100 mg | Caffeine – 300 mg (1 Cup of regular strength coffee) | |
| The nootropic benefits of modafinil are best felt at lower doses. | DHEA – You’ll need the calm when it all kicks in | ||
| Start low and work your way up so that you know how each constituent will effect you individually first. |

More Frequently Asked Questions – Article Updated Dec 2019
We regularly update this article to make sure we are up to date with what our readers want to know.
Modafinil vs Armodafinil
Armodafinil only contains the (R)-(−)-enantiomer (or form) of the racemic modafinil. It could be superior to Modafinil at treating excessive daytime sleepiness because Armodafinil is longer-acting due to its longer half-life.
Adrafinil vs Modafinil?
Adrafinil is less potent than modafinil, and because it is a metabolite it needs to be broken down by the liver before becoming modafinil, which is then processed by the liver again. Adrafinil is therefore harsher on the body too.
Modvigil vs Modalert
Modvigil is the branded Modafinil from Cephalon, where as Modalert is the ‘generic’ version, available off prescription and online in many countries around the world. Modvigil the branded version, is said to be stronger and more effective.
Nuvigil vs Provigil
Nuvigil is the brand name for the chemical armodafinil and Provigil is the brand name for modafinil. Armodafinil is a form of modafinil that has a longer half life. Modafinil stays active for less time in your system than Armodafinil, and is better for more intense and brief use than its longer acting cousin.
What is FlModafinil?
A wakefulness promoting nervous system stimulant similar to Modafinil. Not much is known about it other than that it has been under study since 2015, and is supposedly more bio-available than its cousin.
It is mainly available as a research chemical currently, and we don’t recommend you bother making yourself a guinea pig when you could be using Modafinil.
