According to OK! magazine, Provigil, the brand name for Modafinil, is "a medication to treat excessive sleepiness caused by certain sleep disorders. These sleep disorders are narcolepsy, obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome, and shift work sleep disorder."
some doctors have prescribed the drug for treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), while there are others who believe that Provigil is a so-called "smart drug," that can actually enhance the brain's cognitive ability. Modafinil has even been used experimentally to treat addiction to cocaine.
