I really like Modafinil - even at low doses

How are you guys traveling with moda without prescription? Is it a DGAF by the TSA?
As long as it’s Domestic travel TSA doesn’t care about orals. In fact it’s doubtful TSA would care if you were returning from an international trip. But check before taking medications into other countries. Some things that are legal in one country are not in another. I travel Domestic with oils, tabs, GLPs and India Pharma all the time.

TSA isn't looking for drugs among domestic travelers. That's not to say they won't invite a cop with a drug dog over to have a sniff of they see a brick of white powder, in order to get the probable cause to dig a little deeper. Nor will they ask you for a prescription if they see tablets in your bag.

This is probobly overkill, but if you want be at ease, take a small empty bottle of aspirin or vitamins (that don't have a pic of the tablet on the bottle), put the pills in there, No one's going to open that, and certainly aren't going to do a chemical analysis on it.

International travel is a different matter, as everything's subject to potential close inspection without a warrant, though in reality, the method above would be fine. I've been searched dozens of times and no one in or out of the US ever opened a bottle of otc meds, and if they did, all they'd see is a few white tablets, Not exactly the stuff of drug trafficking. I would make an exception for travel to Japan or Russia, countries that take a particularly hard line on Moda for some reason.
 
Sorry for the hijack and thanks for the guidance! @BamaCrazy I assume you just bring it with you in the standard packaging?

As an aside, seems you can bring up to 6g of moda into Japan without concern.

I don’t change the packaging. For vials of oils and GLPs I carry one of those canisters used to travel with insulin. I place my syringes and vials in there. For India pharma I keep them in their original packaging.
 
Today is the first day of not taking Modafinil in like two months and I don’t notice a difference, so I think I built a tolerance to it. I may even have less afternoon fatigue today but I can’t really measure that from only one day. I think I’ll just use it on an “as needed” basis from here on out, the same way I used to do.

My caffeine pills look exactly like indian modvigil. I would just unpack 50-100 and replace them. It would be a lot more believable than switching vitamins out

Imagine if they you got caught with them and played dumb there would be a massive news storm about how caffeine supplements are being spiked with Modafinil XD
 
I had never tried modafinil before, but today I thought, “Why not?” and took 100mg of MODAFRESH before a heavy leg day. Normally, I just sip on a Monster Raspberry Energy Tea 30 minutes before training if I’m feeling fancy.

Bro, I don’t even remember the last time I was that dialed in. It’s hard to explain - I got so locked in, I ripped my headphones off mid-set and just annihilated legs like it was my last day on Earth.

Honestly, modafinil caught me off guard in the best way. Definitely not something I’ll use every day (unless I want to start flipping gym equipment over mid-set), but for heavy leg days? It’s officially part of the battle plan now. I wasn’t ready for it to hit that hard!

That's exactly what I was hoping for but even with the 400mg Modasmart I didn't get that hyped. I suspect it's because I've been taking Adderal for years so my stim tolerance is too high. I might take a few days off the Adderal to see how the Moda treats me then.
 
Anyone else get some weird side effects from modafinil? I get weak muscles afterwards if I workout on it. Don't get me wrong the workout goes great but afterwards for the next few hours I find it hard to stand or walk if I worked legs. They're like jello. And it's not DOMS or just soreness. It's an issue with neurons wanting to fire. If I worked my arms when I go to lift my arm it's like it will randomly lock up in my biceps for a split second and then continue traveling. Weirdest thing and I hated it so I stopped using it preworkout.
 
Highly doubt modafinil is the cause of your experience,could be a number of things like nutrition,hydration,aminos,I use 200 mg pre workout along with 40 mg anavar,600 mg injectable carnitine,6 iu hgh.Pump,strength,focus is incredible and no pain,soreness immediately after the workout,sure I get DOMS some days the next day but that’s normal

Yeah that's definitely possible. I was taking a lot of stuff back then when I tried modafinil. Ill give it another go tomorrow and see. Currently I'm just cruising on trt with minimal supps and eating clean in a slight deficit so if it doesn't happen now I'll know something else caused it or a combination of modafinil and something else did it.

I have noticed I get a bit dizzy after workouts on the days I take mod and also heart rate can take a good while to come back down to resting once I'm done. I often need to lie down for 10-20 minutes after a session.

I was suspicious it was the mod, but could be other factors at play, like @forearms has suggested.

I’m not an expert, but after using modafinil a few times at 100mg, I didn’t experience anything like that. What you’re describing sounds more neurological - like something’s affecting motor control, not just muscle fatigue. Definitely unusual.

From what I’ve seen, this could be a combo of CNS overstimulation and maybe an electrolyte imbalance. Modafinil can subtly dehydrate you, and that might throw off things like sodium, potassium, or magnesium - causing weird post-workout effects like locking or weakness.

In my case, I’ve noticed a strong energy crash by late afternoon and a spike in blood pressure, which caught me off guard. I’m going to lower the dose, cut caffeine, and see how it goes. The focus is great, but if it messes with BP or nervous system - it’s not worth it.

Sounds smart that you stopped. Better to play it safe and troubleshoot slowly than push through something that feels clearly off.
