> I thought I heard something once about Provigil and liver damage. Just would want you to be careful at 1,000gms. a pop.
Hi.You probably encountered something referring to adrafinil (Olmifon), the parent compound of modafinil (Provigil). When taking adrafinil, it is suggested to take blood tests every now and then to screen for liver anomalies. Once in the body, adrafinil is rapidly and extensively metabolized into modafinil. Modafinil seems to be without the risk of producing liver damage.
