Modiwake 200 mg Modafinil (30 Tablets)

Modiwake 200 mg is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient Modafinil. It is a eugeroic, or wakefulness-promoting agent, used to treat excessive daytime sleepiness in adults diagnosed with specific sleep disorders. This 30-tablet package is manufactured by Genveon.

Product Overview: Modiwake 200 mg (Modafinil)

Modiwake 200 mg (Modafinil) is a prescription-only therapy for conditions that cause significant daytime sleepiness. It is not a general stimulant or a replacement for getting enough sleep.

Its primary, approved medical use is to improve wakefulness in patients with:

• Narcolepsy: A chronic neurological condition causing overwhelming daytime sleepiness.
• Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): As an adjunctive treatment for residual sleepiness, despite primary treatment (e.g., CPAP).
• Shift Work Sleep Disorder (SWSD): For those who experience excessive sleepiness due to a rotating or night work schedule.

Modiwake works by affecting specific neurotransmitters in the brain that regulate the sleep-wake cycle.

How Does Modiwake 200 mg (Modafinil) Work?

The exact mechanism of action of Modafinil is not fully understood. It is believed to work by selectively targeting pathways in the brain that control wakefulness.

It increases the levels of certain chemical messengers, including dopamine and norepinephrine, in parts of the brain responsible for alertness. Unlike traditional amphetamine-based stimulants, Modafinil is thought to have a lower risk of jitteriness or a subsequent “crash.”
