(also known as Modafinil, Allertec)

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.

It works well. Transforming effect. But side effect is exacerbation of headaches/migraines which also chronic problem. Doctors now treating migraine think I should cease to take modafinil. But without modafinil have no life - More of an existence.
