The world today is filled with cutting edge competition. A
second’s lapse and the competition take over. As such it is important for us to
keep our minds at proper quick acting way. However it is quite obvious that one
cannot maintain the same level of focus and attention for the entire day. As
such people need a means to help them maintain that point through the entire
day while at their workplace or at the day to day activities.
Smart drugs are the ones that can help people in this
regard. These are cognitive enhancers that can help people increase their brain
activity and maintain it for long hours. Modafinil is the world’s first oral
smart drug that was FDA Approved in 1998. Some of the Modafinil drugs are:
Provigil 200 mg, Modvigil 200 mg, and Modalert 200 mg.
Provigil
200 mg is one of the best medications for the cognitive enhancement and
for driving away sleepiness. Let us now see how the Modafinil smart drug
compound in Provigil work.
But how does Modafinil work?
The compound stimulates the Orexin receptors (OX1, OX2).
This stimulation activates the Orexin peptide that is a neuropeptide that
regulates arousal, wakefulness, etc. This activates in turn acts on another
neurotransmitter called Dopamine. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that regulates
the emotions, movements and your sensations of pleasure and pain. This
neurotransmitter is inhibited from being taken up by the synapses. This
inhibition results in the creation of a pool of Dopamine that is later used for
the daily work purposes. Other hormones like Norepinephrine, Histamine, and
Serotonin are also increased. These increased hormones actually influence our
thinking, our decision taking ability and many more.
