Modafinil, sold under the brand name Provigil among others, is a wakefulness-promoting medication used primarily to treat narcolepsy.[3][8][12] Modafinil is also approved for stimulating wakefulness in people with sleep apnea and shift work sleep disorder.[3] It is taken by mouth.[3][8] Modafinil is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in people under age 17.[8]

Modafinil has potential for causing severe allergic reactions, mental (psychiatric) effects,[3] hypersensitivity, adverse interactions with prescription drugs, and misuse or abuse.[3][8][12] Modafinil may harm the fetus if taken during or two months prior to pregnancy.[13]

While modafinil is used as a cognitive enhancer or "smart drug" among healthy individuals seeking improved focus and productivity,[14][15] its use outside medical supervision raises concerns regarding potential misuse or abuse.[3][8][16] Research on the cognitive enhancement effects of modafinil in non-sleep-deprived individuals has yielded mixed results, with some studies suggesting modest improvements in attention and executive functions, while others show no significant benefits or even a decline in cognitive functions.[17][18]
