Insomnia
Insomnia is one of the most common side effects associated with long-term modafinil use. It is also a potential addiction risk factor. Modalert Australia, also known by its brand name Provigil, is a wakefulness-promoting drug used to treat excessive sleepiness caused by narcolepsy and shift work sleep disorder (in which people have difficulty falling asleep during their scheduled working hours while on a rotating shift). It is also sometimes used along with breathing devices or other treatments for obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome to help people get more restful sleep.
Like other psycho-stimulants, Modafinil is believed to increase levels of the monoamine neurotransmitters dopamine and noradrenalin in the brain. Dopamine is associated with alertness, motivation, and concentration. These stimulants also have euphoric and mood-enhancing effects.
Modafinil is also known for its ability to enhance memory and improve cognitive function. It has been used as a treatment for disease-related fatigue, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, depression, moronic dystrophy, idiopathic Hypersomnia, and jet lag. It is also a popular non-medical stimulant that is abused for its ability to increase alertness, boost concentration, and brighten moods. It is thought that Modafinil may be less likely to produce the adverse effects of other psycho-stimulants, such as excess locomotor activity, anxiety, and jitteriness.
Although Modafinil does act as a stimulant and can cause an addictive effect in some people, it is not as dangerous as amphetamine. However, some studies suggest that it can cause anhedonia, a loss of pleasure in activities.
It is recommended that you talk to your doctor if you have insomnia. Insomnia is a serious condition that can cause a variety of health problems. If left untreated, Modafinil 200 mg can lead to weight gain, mood swings, irritability, and memory problems. Insomnia is often treated with cognitive behavior therapy, or CBT, which involves learning techniques to change your thoughts and feelings about sleep. It can also be helpful to reduce caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol, to exercise regularly, and to spend an appropriate amount of time in bed each night.
Insomnia is a common problem among high school and college students, as well as many adults. It can be a sign of mental illness, such as anxiety or depression, or it could be a side effect of certain medications.
