Armodafinil is a single isomer of Modafinil and has a longer half-life of 15 hours, thus it can be more effective in promoting wakefulness in individuals with extreme daytime sleepiness. You can take this drug with or without food. However, the presence of food can interfere with its absorption. The chemical formula of Armodafinil is C15H15NO2S and its molecular weight is 273.35. Armodafinil is readily absorbed post oral administration.
The mechanism of action of this drug is not clinically determined. It produces action on the area of the brain that controls the sleep/wake cycle. It acts by increasing the concentration of the substances that help in staying awake. The action of Armodafinil is comparable to sympathomimetic agents such as amphetamine and methylphenidate. However, its pharmacological profile is different than these agents. This drug not only promotes wakefulness, but also enhances energy levels, improves mood, and cognitive ability.
