What Is Modvigil?
Modvigil is a generic version of modafinil. It’s prescribed by doctors for ADD/ADHD, narcolepsy, or shift workers managing sleep disturbances.
It’s also popular outside of this prescribed range among students, creative professionals, and business owners for its ability to increase focus and productivity. Many refer to this drug as a “study drug” for this reason.
Several different companies make modafinil.
The brand name of this drug, Provigil®, is made by the American company Cephalon Inc.
Modvigil is a generic and off-brand version of modafinil made by the Indian pharmaceutical company HAB Pharma. It’s essentially the same chemical as the brand name product but comes at a much lower price.
There are few differences in regards to quality and testing standards between generic drugs and brand name drugs. The major difference, however, is the price.
Brand name modafinil (Provigil®) can cost as much as 50 times the off-brand versions like Modvigil or Modalert.
This is the same with other industries as well, like clothing. A brand name shirt made from one company may be many times more expensive than an otherwise virtually identical shirt made by another company.
You are essentially paying for the company’s reputation.
