Converting Adrafinil to Modafinil?

Original post in this thread

This is obviously conducted in the body already, so is there some chemical process to go about it outside the body, leaving only the active metabolite and eliminating Adrafinil's harsh affects on the liver?
It would certainly reduce costs and make it much easier to import if it could be done.

There was a previous question posted here but it didn't seem to provide any conclusive answers:

So then in theory supplementing adrafinil with milk thistle isn't necessary and/or helpful?

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb · Ceretropic

Well I am not sold on milk thistle. It has not been shown to be effective in clinical trials.

N-acetylcysteine on the other hand is a great liver supplement. It really helps scavenge ROS. I think adding in NAC to your regimen is a good idea, especially if you drink alcohol.

So yes, adding in liver supplements can be beneficial regardless of adrafinil use. However, it is not necessary.

Modafinil Tolerance: Possible Modes of Action

I can 100% confirm that the CYP3A4 induction from modafinil is substantial. At least it is for me. If I take modafinil in the morning, then take a substance that is metabolized by CYP3A4 (i.e. kratom), then the effects a

Replying to AndolsHerrick · This looks great, nice job! I was curious about the Adrafinil and the enzymatic activity necessary to produce Modafinil. Since it's sublingual, theoretically it would bypass the l…

That was our thought as well. It will bypass first pass metabolism, so it will definitely lessen the liver enzyme activity. However, it will still go through second pass metabolism. The elevated liver activity seen in a

Is modafinil tolerance reversible?

Replying to deh707 · I hear Milk Thistle reduces tolerance, as it has to do with liver enzymes.

Ohh, that's actually a good idea. Perhaps not milk thistle specifically. However, maybe most of the noticeable tolerance is simply due to CYP450 enzyme induction. Returning the enzymes to normal levels might eliminate mo

Tongkat Ali feels like modafinil to me (question of timing)

Replying to klausvonespy · So horrible bitterness that follows you around. I think we're beyond nootropics into dystopian nanobots. Do we resist or just give in to our new Tongkat overlords?

I have thought about making a mixture that is the most vile tasting thing out there. I could do it easily. The base would be the 10% tongkat extract. Then you add some berberine for the nice bile flavor it gives. You add

Somebody (I think MisterWhyAreYouSoDumb) mentioned something about how NAC is superior to Milk Thistle for keeping the liver health

Replying to p155 · Thank for that explanation. But in the context of protecting the liver when taking Armodafinil...is there any benefit from either Milk thistle or NAC? If so which is better?

Adrafinil's effects on liver enzymes is small, and very similar to acetaminophen. NAC is the gold standard for protecting the liver from that sort of thing.
