Modafinil helps users stay awake, alert, and focused for longer periods of time. It is illegal to use, buy, sell or possess or try to use Modafinil unless you have a prescription in Australia. It is often a medication used to treat symptoms of narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder, sleep apnea, and other such conditions. It helps users stay awake. The drug is only effective as long as it remains in the body.

Adderall and Modafinil are central nervous system stimulants (psychostimulants). The two drugs have similar properties and similar applications. Both drugs are classified as controlled substances by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.

Modafinil reduces the extreme sleepiness caused by narcolepsy and other sleep disorders, such as periods when breathing stops during sleep (obstructive sleep apnea). It can also help you stay awake during work hours if your work schedule prevents you from sleeping properly (shift work sleep disorder).

If you get the recommended amount of sleep—seven to nine hours a night—you'll spend one-third of your time asleep. While that may seem like a long time, your mind and body are busy during that time so you can stay productive, energized, and healthy during your waking hours. Sleep is divided into five stages, alternating between non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM), including drowsiness, light sleep, moderate to deep sleep, deep sleep, and dreaming. Experts recommend adults get 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night. New research aims to determine not just how much total sleep you need, but how much sleep you need in each sleep stage.
