Armodafinil
Stimulant
The more potent of the two modafinil isomers, said to have a longer duration and lesser side effects. Sometimes prescribed for ADHD and daytime sleepiness.

Timeline (oral)
Bars show relative time in each phase, scaled to the total duration. Each phase keeps its colour in the list above.
Known toxicity
- The median lethal dose at which 50% of participants die (LD50) from either armodafinil or modafinil for human beings has never been reached
Harm reduction
- Test your substance. Cocaine, amphetamine and MDMA powders are routinely cut with fentanyl or nitazenes, and stimulant pills are frequently counterfeits.
- Do not mix stimulants with each other, with alcohol, or with MAOIs, SSRIs or tramadol - the cardiovascular and serotonin risks compound.
- Watch body temperature. Overheating and dehydration cause more stimulant emergencies than heart attacks do. Take breaks, cool down with water and air, and sip (do not gulp) fluids.
- Eat and sleep. Sleep deprivation plus stimulants is the standard route into stimulant psychosis.
- Do not re-dose compulsively. Set a maximum before you start, and give it to someone else to hold you to.
- Chest pain, severe headache, one-sided weakness, slurred speech or fainting are medical emergencies. Call for help immediately.
- Nasal use damages the septum and sinuses; chronic use causes permanent damage that does not heal.
