Modafinil 200mg is a medication prescribed to aid in promoting wakefulness and treating excessive daytime sleepiness in adult patients. Modafinil is mostly used in cases of narcolepsy, sleep apnea (used along with airway management) and shift work sleep disorder. This medication differs from other stimulants since it is not categorized as a stimulant but a wakefulness-promoting drug with an alternative mode of action.

The mechanism by which modafinil works involves stimulating the dopaminergic, noradrenergic, orexinergic and histaminergic mechanisms in the brain, which play a role in the regulation of the circadian rhythm. Modafinil helps increase alertness while avoiding the high levels of stimulation that one would usually experience with amphetamine-type stimulants, thus improving one's ability to concentrate and perform mental tasks efficiently.
