General description

An analeptic drug approved by the US FDA for the treatment of narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder, and excessive daytime sleepiness. This well known nootropic drug, also known as Provigil® or Modavigil®, is often used as a performance-enhancing drug in academics and sports.

Application


  • Innovative Spectrofluorimetric Method for Modafinil Determination: An innovative computationally designed-spectrofluorimetric method has been developed for the determination of modafinil in tablets and human plasma, leveraging the high-purity modafinil solution. This approach enhances analytical accuracy and is crucial for pharmacokinetic studies and neuropharmacological research, offering significant benefits for biochemistry experiments focused on cognitive enhancement and neurotransmitter studies (Hosny et al., 2022).
