This drug (Modiodal) is *so* expensive, wish there were generics around here.
>Hi again tensor,
I forgot I also have something to offer re your comment above.
*** THERE ARE GENERICS AVAILABLE TO YOU! ***
I don't know what country you're in but many countries allow you to import 3 months supply with a script from your local doctor. That's the deal in Australia anyway and it's perfectly legal. I guess you're in Europe, right?
I have purchased modafinil powder from http://bulk.airsealed.com/pd_modafinil.cfm and had no problems with quality or payment. They manufacture & ship it from Bosnia. You will need to invest in some mg accurate scales too though. I bought the "Gemini-20" on ebay for USD$30. They're very accurate and a bargain at the ebay price. http://www.americanweigh.com/product_info.php?products_id=580 Otherwise, they also sell Modalert tabs which are manufactured in India by Sun Pharmaceutics. see http://shop.airsealed.com/pd_modalert.cfm They're a little dearer - but obviously no need for the scales.
I've also purchased modafinil from www.inhousepharmacy.com. In fact, the last time I bought it there it was considerably cheaper that the powder from Airsealed.! They sell the exact same Modalert brand as above. Back in April this year, 100x 200mg Tabs cost GBP56.50. They ship it out from Vanuatu. It got to me here in Australia in just 10 days.
Now, these companies don't give a rat's a_r_s_e if you have a script or not. But YOU need to care because if you try to import it without "whatever your country requires" you'll be breaking YOUR country's laws. So I strongly suggest you call your country's version of the US FDA to see what they require.
One minor complication with inhousepharmacy is that if you search their site for "modafinil", you won't find it. They told me that they took it off because so many Americans were ordering it WITHOUT a US script, that the DEA was just confiscating so many packages. Then the customers were complaining that they didn't receive it, bad mouthing inhouse in forums when inhouse had done nothing wrong. So to avoid bad publicity, they just took it off their site. You can imagine how fickle their customer base is. That's their story anyhow...
If you're bored goto google search & paste in site:http://www.inhousepharmacy.com modafinil
It'll show you the modafinil page. It's still there - they just unlinked it from the site search results :) So all you need to do is e-mail or ring them http://www.inhousepharmacy.com/contact.html & they'll tell you the latest prices for generic modafinil (Modalert) & do a manual order for you. In April, their price was about 1/6 the local name brand here! :)
Lastly, I now have 3 different lots of modafinil. The powder from Bosnia, some tabs from India and a "sample pack" of our official name brand "Modavigil" my doc got from the sales rep. I don't have a mass spectrometer but subjectively, I assure you they are indistinguishable in terms of effect.
Good Hunting :)
Mr. M.
