Modavigil Australia holds the main function of improving wakefulness among people, who experience excessive daytime sleepiness. Basically, Modavigil Australia acts on the central nervous system (i.e. the brain). Usually excessive daytime sleepiness may be associated with such medical condition, as narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder (SWSD) or Obstructive Sleep Apnoea/Hypopnoea Syndrome (OSAHS).

Narcolepsy is usually characterized by a sudden, irresistible feeling of sleepiness during normal hours when person is supposed to be awake. It may occur at unpredictable times, even if it is actually inappropriate or can cause unsafe acts. Basically, it is beyond person’s control. Modavigil Australia works effectively to decrease the unwanted, uncontrollable and excessive sleepiness during daytime.

In case of OSAHS, daytime sleepiness can be cause by an interrupted sleep during night time. Modavigil Australia can treat the symptoms of sleepiness only and does not cure the cause of OSAHS itself. While taking Modavigil Australia you should continue the treatment, which is prescribed to cure the fundamental medical condition (e.g. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure), unless your doctor advises you some other alternative treatment methods.

Modavigil Australia may be prescribed to keep the patient awake during the work shift, if he/she has moderate or severe chronic Shift Work Sleep Disorder (SWSD), which could not be treated by other non-drug therapies.
