Pharmacology

How modafinil works

Modafinil's mechanism of action is distinct from traditional stimulants. Rather than flooding the brain with dopamine like amphetamines, it works through a more nuanced pathway that promotes wakefulness without the jitteriness or crash.

Dopamine Reuptake
Inhibits DAT (dopamine transporter) at lower affinity than classical stimulants, producing wakefulness without euphoria or significant abuse potential.
Orexin/Hypocretin
Activates orexin neurons in the hypothalamus — the brain's master "wake" switch. This is the same pathway disrupted in narcolepsy.
Histamine & Norepinephrine
Increases histaminergic and noradrenergic signaling in wake-promoting brain regions, supporting sustained alertness and executive function.
