Modafinil is used to help people who have narcolepsy, obstructive sleep apnea/hyponea, or shift work sleep disorder to stay awake during the day. Modafinil does not cure these conditions and will only work as long as you continue to take it.
This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Came off dexamphetamine in 1998 to take 400mg of Modafinil a day. Recently had dosage up'd to 800mg a day as was not working as well. Get really bad headaches which last days and make my face swell. Also get a bad back ache which occurs every morning wears off a bit after taking meds.
