Lately this subreddit has been turning into "Modafinil and Me." This is a place to advance our knowledge of all nootropics, not simply beat the latest popular one to death. I understand that many of you have questions about modafinil. However, I assure you that they have all been answered before. The search function works well, please use it before asking basic questions that we have all seen 100 times. I do not want to discourage discussions. However, we should limit those discussions to trying to expand information, not regurgitate what we already know.
* Modafinil is a wakefulness promoting agent.
* Modafinil will not replace dopaminiergic stimulants for ADHD.
* Modafinil will not work for everyone.
* Both enantiomers in racemic modafinil are active.
* R-modafinil is 3 times more active.
* Generics seem to be hit or miss. Some think they are the exact same, other don't...
* Your order will take a while to get here. Don't ask us if this is a normal thing.
* Modafinil increases hypothalamic histamine. This can lead to flush-like symptoms.
* There is a 99.999999% chance that you do not have Steven Johnson's Syndrome. If you did, Reddit is not the place to figure that out.…

Modafinil would be in addition to the others. The only thing you might consider is taking a lower modafinil dose when mixing it with the rest of the stack. Some people can't mix caffeine and modafinil, but I have no issues.
