![]() Don't know about metabolic effects.
It is a norepineprhine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Looked for alternates because I can't take it...anaphylatic reaction. Modafinil looked like a good possibility but I was unable to get a prescription for it (ADD) and I tried my GP and a psych. I was told that they will only prescribe it for sleep apnea and for elderly patients with daytime somnolence. I've had a sleep study and do have sleep issues, but I was diagnosed with periodic limb movement, not sleep apnea so I was told no go. I was given Adderall instead which is annoying and a little bit funny since Modafinil was denied supposedly because of addiction issues. ETA: Not my addiction issues...just potential for addiction/abuse in general. My addiction issues fall into stuff like coffee, surfing the internet and sometimes a little impulsive shopping. |

![]() Check out adrafinil if you're interested in modafinil but can't get a script. The liver converts adrafinil to modafinil, so it essentially acts the same way (you need a higher dose). Adrafinil is not scheduled, nordoes it require a perscription. In the US, at least, you can 100% legally buy it.

![]() Weird I felt like adrafinil didn't do anything for me for alertness (it's intended use) but I did find it quite suppressive on my appetite. Then again, usually only took it around finals so could have something to do with forgetting to eat/running on coffee and 3 hours of sleep.
