Description
Description – Modafinil is an effective and approved medication used for the treatment of several health impairments, specifically narcolepsy, sleep apnea such as periods of time when a person stops breathing in his sleep.
MECHANISM
- Many drugs are sold as a racemic mixture containing two isomers of the structure of the compounds. These are often called the (R) and (S) Isomer.
- This means that once the drug is ingested, there are two “versions” of the chemical structure taking effect within your body.
- Armodafinil gets rid of extreme sleepiness caused due to narcolepsy and other sleep disorders like sleep apnea which stops a person breathing multiple times throughout the night.
- It helps you keep awake during work hours controlling your brain’s sleep and wake cycle.
