Armodafinil (Nuvigil) vs Phenylpiracetam Comparison, Similarities & Differences

This is a newer version of its predecessor Modafinil, it lasts 15 hours rather than 12 and contains only the R-stereoisomer. It has been approved for usage as a eugeroic since 2007 in the United States for conditions like sleep apnea and narcolepsy. Some have found it beneficial to use on a off-label basis for treating ADHD, Chronic Fatigue, and depression. Many claim it enhances cognition significantly on a temporary basis by making you more alert.

Phenylpiracetam is derived from its parent compound Piracetam but with the addition of a Phenyl ring thus making it easier to cross the blood-brain barrier. It is believed to be 30-60 times more potent than Piracetam and was created in the early 1980s in Russia where it is still used as a prescription medication. It is regarded as a stimulant and has been documented as having the potential to improve athletic performance due to increased Noradrenaline levels.

It is considered to help improve brain injuries and reduces amnesia. Moreover, it has a low potential for abuse and is unregulated in the United States. An interesting effect of this drug is that it increases a person's ability to handle extreme temperatures.
