Modafinil in 2026: Legal Status, Brands and What the Carton Says

This guide used to be a pharmacology article. It explained mechanisms, listed pathways, set modafinil against two named prescription stimulants in a comparison, gave an hour-by-hour account of what to expect and summarised what research was said to show about attention and productivity. All of that has been removed on purpose, and there is a section near the end that says exactly why.

Contents

What replaces it is the guide a person actually buying this product needs, and it is longer than what it replaces, because the checkable material turns out to be more abundant than the pharmacology.

NeuroPeak is a shop, not a pharmacy: we hold nobody’s medical history, we assess nobody, we issue no prescriptions and we give no advice on quantity, timing or suitability.

What we can do is set out precisely:

• what modafinil is as a substance;
• where it stands legally market by market;
• what a prescription involves;
• which brands we carry and who makes them;
• what is printed on a carton and how to check it against a batch analysis;
• what a tablet costs;
• how a parcel travels and what happens if it does not arrive;
• what the manufacturer’s leaflet covers;
• what to do if something goes wrong.

That is the whole of this page.

What modafinil is

Modafinil is a synthetic compound with the development code CRL-40476, first identified during research at the Lafon laboratories in France in the 1970s. Group Lafon, the company founded by the chemist Louis Lafon, was later acquired by Cephalon.

France authorised modafinil in 1994, the United States followed in 1998 under the brand name Provigil, and authorisations across EU member states followed through the late 1990s and 2000s.

The original patents have long since expired, which is why the substance is now supplied as generics by a number of manufacturers.

The 2010 European review

In 2010 the European Medicines Agency completed a Europe-wide review of modafinil-containing medicines and restricted the authorised indication. That is a regulatory event worth knowing about, and it is routinely omitted from consumer articles.

The consequence is that the authorised indication is now a single, narrowly defined one, and it is set out in each product’s summary of product characteristics and in the leaflet packed with it. Those are the documents that define what a modafinil medicine is authorised for.

This page does not restate them and does not paraphrase them, because a shop restating an authorised indication in its own words is one short step from suggesting who ought to be taking something — and that is a decision for a doctor working from an individual assessment.

Composition: a chiral molecule

Modafinil is a chiral compound. The molecule exists in two mirror-image forms, designated R and S, which contain the same atoms joined in the same order but are not superimposable, the way a left hand and a right hand are not.

Modafinil as it is manufactured — the substance in every modafinil brand in this shop and in every modafinil brand anywhere — contains equal parts of both forms.

Armodafinil, listed elsewhere in this shop under its own brand names, is the same molecule with the R form alone, which is why the number printed on an armodafinil carton is not the same as the number printed on a modafinil carton.

That is a description of composition, and it explains a difference in labelling. It is not a statement about what either substance does in a person, it is not a claim that one stands in for a given quantity of the other, and nothing here should be read as either.

Describing a molecule’s structure says nothing about what happens to somebody who takes it — a point worth holding on to, because the slide from “here is the chemistry” to “therefore here is the effect” is the single most common move in writing about this category, and there is never an actual study in between.

Generic brands contain the same substance

Every 200 mg modafinil brand listed here declares the same active substance at the same strength. The differences between them are:

• the company that makes the tablet;
• the excipients;
• the quality systems behind the plant;
• the pack sizes offered;
• the price.

A bioequivalent generic is not a different medicine, and we do not describe it as one. What that means in practice — and why we no longer publish a table ranking these brands against one another — is set out further down.

Regulatory status, market by market

This is the section that changes what you should do, so it comes before anything about products. The single most important thing to understand is that there is no EU-wide answer. Medicines classification is national, personal-import rules are national, and both are amended from time to time.

Prescription-only: what the classification actually means

Modafinil is a prescription-only medicine across the European Union and in the United Kingdom.

That classification exists for a reason that is easy to lose sight of when reading a shop’s website: somebody qualified is meant to assess whether the medicine is appropriate for a specific person, taking their history, their other medicines and the documented contraindications into account, before it is supplied to them.

The classification is not a formality standing between a customer and a product. It is the assessment step, and no online seller — this one included — performs it or can perform it.

Prescription-only is also not the same as narcotics control. In most EU member states modafinil is not scheduled under narcotics legislation, and the restriction attaches to supply and dispensing rather than to possession.

In the Netherlands, for example, modafinil is classified UR — Uitsluitend op Recept, prescription-only — under the Geneesmiddelenwet, and it does not appear on List I or List II of the Opiumwet.

Those are two different statutes doing two different jobs, and conflating them produces both false alarm and false comfort.

Countries that go further

Several countries treat modafinil more strictly than a plain prescription-only medicine, placing it in a controlled, narcotic or habit-forming category that brings additional rules on prescribing, dispensing, record-keeping and carrying it across a border.

Some restrict who may write the initial prescription — France, for instance, is reported to reserve the initial prescription to specialists. In the United States, modafinil and armodafinil are controlled substances in Schedule IV of the Controlled Substances Act.

Outside the EU the range is wider still, and a handful of countries treat import for personal use as an offence rather than an administrative matter.

The practical instruction is the same everywhere: check the position for your own country, at your national medicines agency, before you order. Do not rely on a table on a shop’s website — including this one — as your source, because these classifications change and a page can be out of date the day after it is written. Country-specific guides are published for the Netherlands, Germany, France, Poland, Czechia, Italy and Spain, and they are starting points rather than legal advice.

Personal import and customs

Import is a separate question from possession, and the two are constantly confused. Whether a consignment may lawfully enter a country is decided by that country’s medicines and customs rules, not by a shop’s willingness to dispatch it.

Customs authorities may:

• inspect a consignment;
• detain it;
• refuse it entry or destroy it;
• write to the addressee about it.

Several member states do not permit prescription medicines to be received by post for personal use at all, whatever the quantity.

A seller’s decision to ship to an address is a commercial decision. It is not a legal opinion about your situation and nobody should read it as one. NeuroPeak is a shop, not a legal adviser: what we can tell you is where to look, which is your national medicines agency, your customs authority and — where the position is not clear from either — a pharmacist or a legal source local to you.

What a prescription actually involves

Since the lawful route runs through a prescription, it is worth describing what that route looks like rather than treating it as a formality to be routed around.

In most EU countries the first step is an appointment with a general practitioner, who takes a history, asks about other medicines and existing conditions, and decides whether an assessment for this class of medicine is appropriate or whether a referral to a specialist is the right next step. In countries where the initial prescription is reserved to specialists, that referral is not optional.

Where a prescription is issued, the medicine is dispensed by a pharmacy, which is also the point at which a pharmacist can answer questions about interactions with anything else you take.

Two things follow from that description. The first is that a prescription is the only route that includes an assessment of you specifically — which is exactly the thing an online order cannot include. The second is that a pharmacist is a genuinely under-used source of free, qualified advice, and is worth talking to whether or not you end up with a prescription.

Competitive sport

Modafinil and armodafinil are named on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s Prohibited List among stimulants, as is adrafinil. That is an entirely separate instrument from national medicines law: holding a valid prescription does not by itself make a substance permitted in competition. Anyone competing under a code that adopts the WADA list should check with their own anti-doping authority.

The brands we carry, and who makes them

All modafinil listed here declares 200 mg of modafinil per tablet. What differs between the brands is the manufacturer, the pack sizes offered and the price per tablet, and those are the only three things this shop compares.

The modafinil category page is generated from the catalogue and shows what is actually listed today with the prices in force today, so where this article and that page disagree, the category page is right.

Armodafinil brands are listed separately in the armodafinil category at their own declared strengths. At 150 mg:

• Waklert by Sun Pharma;
• Artvigil by HAB Pharmaceuticals;
• Vigilant by Taj Pharmaceuticals;
• Walkalarm by Ryon Pharma;
• Armovigil by NATCO Pharma.

And at 50 mg:

• Armosam by Jagsam Pharma;
• Armovin by Taurlib Pharma;
• Wakafinil by Pacific India.

What we will and will not say about a manufacturer

For every brand in the table above we state one thing about its maker: the company name, as printed on the carton. Modalert is made by Sun Pharma, Modvigil by HAB Pharmaceuticals, Modaheal by Healing Pharma and Vilafinil by Centurion Laboratories, and the armodafinil brands are handled the same way.

We do not publish a company history, a market position, a stock listing or a factory certificate for one maker and not for another, because a paragraph of flattering detail attached to a single brand is a ranking whether or not it is written as one — and this page has just told you that the brands differ by maker, excipients, the quality systems behind the plant, pack size and price and by nothing else.

That rule covers manufacturing standards as well. WHO-GMP is the best known of them: a good-manufacturing-practice standard describing how a production site is run, documented and inspected. Three things are worth knowing about certificates of that kind:

• They are held by a site, not by a product.
• They are issued by a national authority for the specific dosage forms listed on the certificate, and they carry an expiry date and must be renewed.
• They say nothing whatever about what a tablet does in a person.

We therefore attach no such certificate to any product in this catalogue, because we are not the party who can evidence which certificate covers which production line on which date.

The manufacturer and the issuing authority are that party, and a buyer who wants the assurance should ask for the certificate itself and read the scope printed on it rather than take a shop’s word for it.

In particular, we will not place a regulator’s name next to a product. A factory’s registration with a foreign medicines authority is an administrative listing of an establishment; it is not approval of anything sold from it, and using it as if it were is one of the more common forms of borrowed authority in this market.

Nor do we rank makers by size or reputation, because how large a company is and how often its name comes up are not properties of the tablet inside the blister.

What is printed on the carton

A genuine manufacturer’s carton carries a specific set of printed particulars, and knowing what they are is most of what “checking a pack” means:

• The brand name and the substance name, usually with the strength — for instance “Modafinil Tablets IP 200 mg”.
• The pharmacopoeial standard. The suffix IP denotes the Indian Pharmacopoeia, the standard the tablet is made to. It is printed by the manufacturer because the product is made to that monograph. It is a manufacturing standard, and like WHO-GMP it says nothing about what a tablet will do for you.
• The manufacturer’s name and address and the manufacturing licence number.
• The batch number, which is the key to everything else on this page.
• The manufacturing date and the expiry date.
• The blister foil, which repeats the brand name, the strength, the batch number and the expiry date, so that a loose strip can still be identified.

Everything we ship is in the manufacturer’s own sealed packaging: foil blister strips inside the printed carton, with batch number and expiry date exactly as applied at the factory. Nothing is decanted into our own containers, nothing is relabelled, and no blister is cut to make up a quantity. Because the pack stays whole, every tablet delivered can be traced to a specific batch and to the analysis of that batch.

How to check a batch and read a Certificate of Analysis

Every batch that arrives at our EU warehouse is sampled and sent for independent laboratory analysis before it is listed for sale, and the Certificate of Analysis for that batch is available to download. The check available to you is simple and it is worth doing:

1. Find the batch number on the carton and confirm the same number appears on the blister foil inside.
2. Check the expiry date on both, and check that the carton seal was intact when it arrived.
3. Obtain the Certificate of Analysis for that batch number and confirm the number on the certificate matches the number on your pack.
4. Read what the certificate states: the identity of the active substance, and that the tablet contains the amount declared on the label.

That is what a certificate proves, and it is genuinely worth having — it turns “trust us” into something you can verify.

It is also the limit of what it proves. A Certificate of Analysis is a document about the contents of a pack. It is not evidence about an outcome for any individual, it is not a safety assessment for you specifically, and it is not a substitute for the assessment a prescriber would make. A certificate that does not name a batch, or that names a batch that is not the one you received, is not doing the job at all.

What a tablet costs

Price per tablet is the honest unit for this category, and it is the one we publish. Using Modalert as the worked example, the current listing runs:

Two things about that table. First, the price-per-tablet figure falls as the pack size rises, which is ordinary volume pricing and not a reason in itself to buy more of a prescription medicine than you have any business buying — that quantity question belongs with a prescriber, not with a price grid.

Second, price per tablet compares pack sizes of the same product cleanly, and compares across brands only where the strength printed on both cartons is the same. Read the strength off the box rather than inferring it from a price table.

We do not convert prices into a price per milligram. That arithmetic would imply that tablets of different strengths stand in for one another, which is a statement about quantity and not one a shop is entitled to make. The per-tablet figure is a price and nothing more.

Shipping, customs and what arrives

• Dispatch. Orders leave our European distribution centre within 24 to 48 hours of payment confirmation.
• Delivery time. Typically 3 to 7 business days within the EU, tracked end to end, with the tracking number emailed on handover to the carrier.
• Shipping cost. €4.95 to the Netherlands, €6.95 to Belgium and Germany, €9.95 to the rest of the EU and to the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. Free on orders over €150.
• Outer packaging. A plain cardboard box or padded envelope with a neutral sender reference. No product names, no pharmacy wording and no NeuroPeak branding on the exterior.
• Inner packaging. Sealed opaque inner packaging, with the manufacturer’s cartons and blisters intact and the seals unbroken.
• Delivery guarantee. If a tracked shipment has not arrived within the estimated window plus a five-business-day grace period, you choose a free reshipment or a full refund, after the carrier record has been checked.
• Missed delivery. Procedures differ by country — a neighbour, a pickup point, a parcel locker or a card and a redelivery. If a parcel is returned to us after the carrier’s hold period, contact us and we will reship it.

Customs and the delivery guarantee

On customs specifically: nothing in the paragraph above is a guarantee that a consignment will clear into your country, and we do not present it as one. Carrier and customs documents, where required, carry the information required for lawful transport.

The delivery guarantee is a commercial undertaking about what we do if a parcel does not arrive; it is not a statement about the legality of the import, which is the question you need to settle for yourself before ordering. Full details are on the shipping page.

Payment

The store currently accepts Bitcoin, and paying in Bitcoin applies a 20% discount to the whole order automatically at checkout, with no coupon code to enter. The euro price is locked at the exchange rate at the time of the order.

No card or online-banking credentials are entered on NeuroPeak, and checkout traffic is protected with TLS encryption. Bitcoin transactions are visible on the public network, which is a property of the payment method rather than a claim about privacy on our part.

If you have not used Bitcoin before, allow some time for it on a first order — it is the step that most often delays a first purchase. A regulated exchange or a card on-ramp will sell you the amount you need, and card on-ramps generally work without creating a full exchange account. The shipping and payments page walks through it.

What the product information covers — and what is actually in the carton

Two things have to be kept apart here, and shops in this market routinely run them together. Modafinil as a substance is authorised in EU member states. The tablets listed on this site are not. They are generics manufactured in India to the Indian Pharmacopoeia; they hold no EU marketing authorisation, no medicines agency in the Union has assessed them, and what is packed inside the carton is the manufacturer’s own leaflet rather than a regulator-approved one.

A leaflet written by the company that made the tablet is a useful document and we relay it as such. It is not the document a European regulator agreed, and we will not describe it as one.

Where the regulator-agreed documents live

The regulator-agreed documents do exist, they are public, they are free, and they are worth reading before you order rather than after. For every authorised modafinil medicine in the EU there is a summary of product characteristics written for prescribers and a patient information leaflet written for the person taking it, both published by the agency that authorised that product.

You can find them by searching a national medicines register for the substance name and opening the product information attached to any authorised product:

• the CBG-MEB register in the Netherlands;
• BfArM in Germany;
• ANSM in France;
• AEMPS in Spain;
• AIFA in Italy;
• URPL in Poland;
• SÚKL in Czechia;
• the MHRA in the United Kingdom.

Those documents are the reference for the substance, they carry the complete list of reported effects with their frequencies, the contraindications, the interactions and the warnings, and they are not written by anybody with something to sell you.

What follows is relayed from that published product information, and we grade none of it for you: we will not tell you that an effect is usually mild, we will not attach a reassuring adjective to anything in the list, and we will not confine any of it to “sensitive people” — that phrasing quietly tells everybody else it will not happen to them, and nobody knows that.

Where this page and the published product information differ, the published document is right. Where the manufacturer’s leaflet in your carton differs from either, a pharmacist is the person to ask which document applies to what you are holding.

Reported effects

The published leaflet lists, among others: headache, nausea, dry mouth, reduced appetite, difficulty sleeping, dizziness, anxiety and nervousness.

It holds the complete list with frequencies and this summary does not, which is the reason to go and read it rather than stop here.

Serious reactions — stop and seek urgent help

Stop taking the medicine and seek urgent medical help if any of the following occur:

• a skin rash, blistering, or ulceration of the mouth or eyes;
• swelling of the face or throat;
• difficulty breathing;
• fever;
• chest pain;
• an irregular heartbeat;
• hallucinations, agitation, confusion, depression or thoughts of self-harm.

A rash can be the first sign of a serious reaction. It is a reason to stop and get medical attention, not to wait and see. Severe skin reactions are why modafinil carries a specific warning in several jurisdictions, and the rule about a rash is unconditional.

Contraindications and cautions

Modafinil is contraindicated in anyone with a known hypersensitivity to modafinil or armodafinil. Medical advice is essential before use by:

• anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding;
• anyone with a heart condition or high blood pressure;
• anyone with impaired liver or kidney function;
• anyone with a history of psychiatric illness;
• anyone taking other medicines, because interactions are possible.

That list is not exhaustive and it is not a substitute for the leaflet or for a conversation with a doctor or pharmacist.

Hormonal contraception

Modafinil reduces the effectiveness of hormonal contraception. This covers every hormonal form:

• combined pills;
• progestogen-only pills;
• patches;
• implants;
• vaginal rings;
• hormonal intrauterine coils.

Anyone relying on hormonal contraception must agree additional or alternative contraception with a doctor or pharmacist before use, and must raise it with them again when stopping rather than assuming the question ends with the last tablet. This is the single most under-communicated fact in this entire category, and the consequences are the kind that cannot be reversed.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Modafinil is not recommended in pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Anyone who is pregnant, may become pregnant or is breastfeeding must take medical advice before use, and should read the pregnancy section of the product information published for an authorised modafinil medicine, which is written specifically for that question.

Storage

Keep the tablets in their original packaging at normal room temperature, dry and away from direct light, and out of the sight and reach of children. Do not use the product after the expiry date printed on the carton and the blister.

What this shop will not tell you

We publish no dosing figure, no timing, no administration instruction, no stacking or cycling protocol and no combination guidance, and we say so in a heading rather than promising guidance that the text then withholds.

Suitability and individual use are settled with a doctor or pharmacist, working from that person’s medical history, the other medicines they take, and the leaflet packed inside the carton. Do not combine or alternate medicines without professional advice.

We hold nobody’s medical history and assess nobody, so we have no basis on which to say what quantity suits any individual — which is precisely why this page does not say it, and why you should be sceptical of shops that do.

Why this guide publishes no comparison of effect

An earlier version of this article ranked modafinil against two named prescription stimulants, described how the substance was said to feel across the hours of a day, and scored the generic brands against one another for onset and smoothness. Those passages have been deleted on purpose, and they are not coming back.

The reason is that they were not true in the way a reader would take them. A bioequivalent generic does not take effect sooner, continue longer or arrive more strongly than another product containing the same substance at the same declared strength.

Where two cartons declare 200 mg of modafinil, they are not two different medicines with two different characters, and no amount of confident prose makes them so.

Vendors who publish grids scoring one brand as smoother and another as more potent are inventing a difference the labels do not contain — and the brand that scores best is dependably the one with the higher margin.

Comparisons against other medicines

The same applies to comparisons against named medicines from other classes. Setting this substance beside a prescription stimulant in a table, whichever way the arrows point, is a claim about relative clinical performance, and a shop is in no position to make one.

Removing those passages cost this page a section that converted well. It is still the right call: a reader who has been told which claims a seller cannot back is better equipped than one who has been handed an authoritative-looking grid.

So this site publishes no comparison of effect between brands, presentations or substances anywhere in the catalogue, and no ranking by onset, strength or smoothness. We compare exactly two things, because they are printed and real: who makes a product, and what it costs per tablet.

Frequently asked questions

Is modafinil prescription-only in the EU?

Yes. It is a prescription-only medicine across the European Union and in the United Kingdom, and in most member states it is not scheduled under narcotics legislation — in the Netherlands, for example, it is classified UR under the Geneesmiddelenwet and does not appear on the Opiumwet lists.

Some countries go further and place it in a controlled or habit-forming category, and in the United States it is a Schedule IV controlled substance. Check your own national medicines agency, because these classifications differ and change.

What does a prescription actually involve?

An appointment with a doctor who takes a history, asks about your other medicines and existing conditions and decides whether an assessment for this class of medicine is appropriate, or whether a referral to a specialist is the right next step. In some countries the initial prescription is reserved to specialists. Where a prescription is issued, a pharmacy dispenses it — and the pharmacist is also the person best placed to answer interaction questions.

Which brands do you carry, and who makes them?

At 200 mg: Modalert by Sun Pharma, Modvigil by HAB Pharmaceuticals, Modaheal by Healing Pharma and Vilafinil by Centurion Laboratories. Armodafinil is listed separately at its own declared strengths. The category page shows what is actually in stock today.

What is the difference between Modalert and Modvigil?

The manufacturer and the price. Both declare 200 mg of modafinil per tablet; Modalert is made by Sun Pharma and Modvigil by HAB Pharmaceuticals. That is the whole of the difference we are prepared to state, because it is the whole of the difference the labels contain.

What does “IP” on the carton mean?

It denotes the Indian Pharmacopoeia — the standard the tablet is manufactured to, printed by the manufacturer because the product is made to that monograph. Like WHO-GMP, it is a manufacturing standard describing how something is produced and tested. It says nothing about what a tablet will do in a person.

How do I check the pack that arrives?

Confirm the carton seal was intact, find the batch number on the carton and check the same number is on the blister foil, check the expiry date on both, then obtain the Certificate of Analysis for that batch and confirm the batch number matches. The certificate states the identity of the active substance and that the tablet contains the amount declared on the label.

What does a Certificate of Analysis prove — and what does it not?

It proves what is in the pack: identity and declared content, tested by an independent laboratory for that specific batch. It does not prove anything about an outcome for you, it is not a safety assessment for your circumstances, and it is not a substitute for a prescriber’s judgement. A certificate that does not name your batch is not doing the job.

What does a tablet cost?

Price per tablet falls as pack size rises. Modalert currently runs from €2,90 per tablet in a pack of 10 to €1,30 per tablet in a pack of 200; the lowest per-tablet figures across the modafinil brands currently start at €1,15. Paying in Bitcoin takes 20% off the whole order automatically. Live prices are on the category and product pages.

Can customs stop my parcel?

Yes. Import is decided by your country’s medicines and customs rules, not by our willingness to dispatch, and a customs authority may inspect, detain, refuse entry to or destroy a consignment and write to the addressee. Several member states do not permit prescription medicines to be received by post for personal use at all.

Our delivery guarantee is a commercial undertaking about a parcel that does not arrive; it is not a statement about whether the import is lawful where you live.

How do I pay?

Bitcoin, which applies a 20% discount automatically at checkout with no coupon code. The euro price is locked at the exchange rate at the time of the order, and no card or banking credentials are entered on our site. Allow a little extra time on a first order if you have not used it before.

What if my order does not arrive?

If a tracked shipment has not arrived within the estimated delivery window plus a five-business-day grace period, contact us with your order number. After the carrier record has been checked, you choose a free reshipment or a full refund.

Where do I find the side effects and contraindications?

In the product information published by the medicines agency that authorised a modafinil medicine in your country — the summary of product characteristics and the patient leaflet, both free to look up in the national register. That is the regulator-agreed document, and it carries the complete list with frequencies, the contraindications, the interactions and the warnings.

The leaflet packed in the carton of the tablets sold here is the manufacturer’s own and is not the same document; both take precedence over a summary on a shop’s website, and a pharmacist can tell you which applies to the pack in your hand.

Does modafinil affect hormonal contraception?

Yes. It reduces the effectiveness of hormonal contraception in every form — combined and progestogen-only pills, patches, implants, vaginal rings and hormonal coils. Agree additional or alternative contraception with a doctor or pharmacist before use, and review it again when stopping.

Why will you not tell me how much to take?

Because we are a shop and not a pharmacy. We hold nobody’s medical history, we assess nobody and we issue no prescriptions, so we have no basis for saying what quantity suits any individual. That question belongs to a doctor or pharmacist with the leaflet in front of them, and a website that answers it is guessing about you.

Where has the comparison table gone?

It was removed on purpose. It scored modafinil against two named prescription stimulants and ranked the generic brands against each other for onset and smoothness. We now publish no comparison of effect anywhere — only manufacturer and price per tablet, which are the two things printed on a label.

The bottom line

Modafinil as a substance is an authorised prescription medicine in EU member states, with a narrowly defined authorised indication set out in the summary of product characteristics published for each authorised product, and with a national classification that differs from one country to the next.

The tablets listed here are a separate matter and the distinction is the one worth carrying away: they are Indian-Pharmacopoeia generics with no EU marketing authorisation of their own, carrying the pharmacopoeial mark on the box and the manufacturer’s leaflet inside it rather than a regulator-approved one.

Those are the facts that should shape a purchase, and every one of them is checkable — by you, from sources that are not us.

What this shop offers is:

• sealed manufacturer packs;
• a named maker on every carton;
• an independent batch analysis you can match to the pack in your hand;
• a price per tablet stated plainly;
• tracked EU dispatch with a reship-or-refund guarantee;
• a flat refusal to tell you what it will feel like.

If you want the comparison this page used to publish, it is gone and it was never worth what it appeared to be worth.

If you want the parts of this catalogue with no regulator’s file behind them at all, Adrafinil: Legal Status, Manufacturers and What the Label Says and Flmodafinil: What It Is, What Is Known and What Is Not set out exactly what is missing in each case, and Modafinil and Armodafinil: What Differs on the Box covers what the two cartons declare.

Questions this page has not answered are on the FAQ page, or you can contact us directly. The one question we cannot answer is whether this is right for you — that conversation belongs with a doctor, and the leaflet in the box is the document that governs it.

NeuroPeak is a shop, not a pharmacy, and this article is not medical advice. Modafinil is a prescription-only medicine in most EU countries and a controlled substance in several. Import, possession and personal-use rules vary between countries and are amended from time to time — check the rules in force at your delivery address before ordering. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before use.
