AmphetamineAmphetamine ModafinilModafinil
This combination medication is used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) as part of a total treatment plan, including psychological, social, and other treatments. It may help to increase the ability to pay attention, concentrate, stay focused, and stop fidgeting. This product is a combination of stimulants (amphetamine and dextroamphetamine). It is thought to work by restoring the balance of certain natural substances (neurotransmitters) in the brain. This drug may also be used to treat a certain sleeping disorder (narcolepsy) to help you stay awake during the day. It should not be used to treat tiredness or to hold off sleep in people who do not have a sleep disorder.Modafinil decreases extreme sleepiness due to narcolepsy and other sleep disorders such as difficult/irregular breathing during sleep (e.g., obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome-OSAHS). It is also used to help you stay awake during work hours for people with work schedules that interfere with a normal sleep routine (shift work sleep disorder-SWSD). It is not known how modafinil works to increase wakefulness. It is thought to work by affecting certain chemicals in the brain that control the sleep/wake cycle. Modafinil does not make up for lack of sleep and should not be used to treat tiredness or hold off sleep in people who do not have a sleep disorder. This medication is not recommended for use in children.

I began Modafinil four months ago. Since then, I have been confused, unable to focus, daily headaches, overwhelming exhaustion, yawning constantly, out of breath easily.. a complete wreck and unable to function in society. It didn't work for me, but it may work for someone else. Good luck.

I need to stop taking this med due to bad feeling of repeatedly yawning trying to get a deep breath over and over along with terrible headaches. This all happens after I take 200mg pill. Unsure of what this med is doing to my body or heart. In the past I took the name brand Provigil with no side effects but I was younger maybe healthier?who knows .....anyhow better to be safe even though I have no wakeful life at all.
