I really like Modafinil - even at low doses

[Ghoul]

I loved Mod. Used to get it prescribed and my insurance covered it, however insurance plan change and it was no longer covered. The price from the pharmacy was fucking ridiculous, Since then I haven't been able to find a source with reasonable prices. If anyone knows of one I would be greatly appreciative . not sure if anyone has seen the movie limitless, but the I have read a few articles a while back that claimed Mod was supposed to be considered the " limitless drug." I guess the real benefits come after having taken the medication for a while. Not sure how true that is. Thought it was interesting.

When I tried to fill my prescription years ago insurance declined and they wanted $900 for 30 pills!

If it's a US prescription, GoodRX gets the price down to $25 for 30, or $55 for 90, without insurance. This is useful because insurance refuses to cover it for anything "off label" like ADHD or depression. There are places online that will offer a prescription.

India pharma can go as low as 20¢ for Modalert if you buy 10 boxes, 1000 tabs.

Roughly same for Artvigil 150.

The "specialist" Moda vendors are all ripoffs at $1-3 a pill, often for low end brands, who are just drop shipping from the same pharmacies you can go to direct.

That's amazing, you have know Idea, how much that helps. I have a doctor whom he and I have a great relationship and I am blessed that if I am honest about what I will use a medication for and it makes sense he will write me the script, so this helps out big time.

Any doctor who hesitates to write a Moda script, while writing Adderall scripts all day long, like most of them do, has a screw loose or more likely has no familiarity with it and how benign it is.

It amusing to hear how many medical professionals write each other scripts for it to keep up performance on long shifts, just like the military does. Even the FAA came close to suggesting it be stocked on commercial aircraft as an alternative
to the endless cups of coffee pilots are given on long haul flights.

Eugeroics offer a costly—but effective—alternative to caffeine for the sleep deprived. We all struggle with night shifts. The 4 a.m. mental fog that descends on everyone can make it difficult to focus on managing the minute-but-critical details of a department full of patients. Wouldn’t it be...

Do you notice a strong difference with focus on semax? I have some in my fridge but never took it long enough to notice much (and was in prep so i don’t think anything would’ve helped me focus).

Ive noticed with semax but not semax amidate, which Ive heard was supposed to be better. Semax also works well in combo with the addy but of course be cautious doing this.

Im giving it a shot again this time using it for a longer duration before was only a few days. it definitely helps with cognition but dont get a big boost of energy

Does semax help with adhd?

I believe it is used for adhd as well as cognition and brain injury in Russia. Including 1 link on semax and add.

Semax, an analogue of adrenocorticotropin (4-10), is a potential agent for the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and Rett syndrome - PubMed

Psychostimulants, such as methylphenidate, are currently the most common used drug therapy for children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, a number of patients with ADHD either fail to respond to these drugs or experience side effects that preclude their use. The...

YMMV also with semax depending on if you go sub q or intranasal. Intranasal seems to be preferred method generally, but I do not like the idea of iffy bac water being shot into the neighborhood of my brain. I have done both, but the intranasal was via drops. Id try spray next time if I were to forego sub cutaneous.

Random question but does Modvigil make anyone else’s piss smell differently? Potent as hell

Yes that's normal, similar to what happens after eating asparagus. A good clue as to how quickly you metabolize it. Eventually you stop noticing it.

Okay good to know. I was starting to worry about my kidneys for a second. lol

Yeah it's fine. A failing liver will make Modafinil stronger and last longer, and it has no effect on the kidneys, it just so happens the metabolites being eliminated after the drug is broken down by the enzymes generated in the liver, stink. After a few months you can't even smell them any more.
