We have already established that Modafinil is a smart drug which enhances your brain and mood to allow your brain to work more efficiently. It works by stimulating the brain into being alert, this promotes a high capacity of mental functioning and processing and enhances your motivation and energy in general.

One of the reasons some experts cite for Modafinil resulting in such a smart drug is due to the Theanine found inside its chemical structure. Although this amino acid is often found in mushrooms, you can also find Theanine in tea as it works best when mixed with caffeine. The combination of caffeine and Theanine produce increased mental endurance, reaction time and memory.

Unlike other stimulant drugs that apparently affect your brain’s efficiency.  Modafinil is able to improve your cognitive processing efficiently, and there’s a lot of evidence on there that proves this.

As we mentioned before Modafinil is known as a smart drug and falls under the umbrella name of a nootropic. Modafinil gets this nickname because of the way it improves your cognitive functions.  More and more people are starting to use Modafinil in Poland as opposed to any other drug due to the minimal side effects and positive outcomes.

Because Modafinil is a eugeroic as opposed to a stimulant. Taking Modafinil won’t give you any strange jittery or speedy ways of acting like most stimulants. This means you won’t crack or suffer any withdrawals either.

  • You won’t get addicted.

You won’t be able to get addicted to Modafinil like many other amphetamines which can provide you with the same concentration enhancement. Modafinil has even been reported to help people kick addictions.

  • Modafinil speeds up motivation, vigilance, and reaction in healthy adults as well as improving fatigue levels.
  • The University of Cambridge reported Modafinil is also effective for reducing impulsive responses to situations, or as some call this ‘bad decisions.
  • Sleep deprived doctors are known to use Modafinil as it improves brain function.

Thanks to the number of studies which have been performed on Modafinil the risks of this substance are well documented and are very minimal.

As long as you are aware of this problem you can rest assured that taking Modafinil is completely safe.

One of the very few side effects that people do experience in some extremely rare conditions is called Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS). 12 SJS is where some people may develop a life-threatening rash while taking modafinil, this is sometimes because of genetic susceptibility. This condition can also be triggered by antibiotics, as well as cocaine, phenytoin, and Modafinil. If you are worried about this you can take a genetic test before using Modafinil, however, if you do have SNPs, you should avoid this drug.

Even though the risk is low, you might want to get a genetic test before you use any of those drugs, including Modafinil. If you have one of these SNPs, you may have an increased risk, and to have the lowest risk, there are a lot of drugs you should avoid including some basic antibiotics…and Modafinil.
