Is modafinil/Provigil available over the counter?
- itistoday 17y agoIt depends on whose counter you're referring to. :-p But generally, no.
- metamemetics 17y agoIts precursor Adrafinil is not a controlled substance and easier to obtain over the internet. Same effects, different dosage requirements. Modafinil itself is schedule IV in the US and harder to obtain cough nubrain.com cough
- itistoday 17y agoThat site seems really insecure. Got this MySQL error at one point: QUERY = UPDATE ec_customer SET `noOrders`=noOrders + 1 WHERE customer_id = Their registration doesn't seem to be done through HTTPS. I'd be careful handing your CC info to them. Whoever wrote their software seems really incompetent.
- oldgregg 17y agoNo, but you can buy it cheap from India. If you google "modalert" -- the 4th link down, they have been around for years and will hook you up.
- windsurfer 17y agoThis doesn't sound sketchy at all.
- blasdel 17y agoThanks! Generic Modafinil for $2.20/200mg instead of the usual $6/100mg online for the branded stuff. I'd previously stuck with Adrafinil before, since it's $1/300mg online. The Olmifon packages I've gotten have been labeled at $0.15/pill over the counter in France. But HOLY SHIT that was the sketchiest web checkout process I can possibly imagine that doesn't involve physical handoffs of unmarked bills. So you start off with a normal inventory based shopping cart system, but then none of the 5 sketchy looking payment options is configured — instead you go to a separately hosted shopping cart system, and add a stack of gift certificates to that cart in bill denominations. To check out there you have to create an account with a sketchy credit-card-based Paypal competitor called AlertPay, who's signup process has questions about your Citizenship, DOB, and Occupation, ostensibly for some kind of Patriot Act compliance. After doing that you are redirected back to the second shopping cart system, where you have to click through two pages to generate each gift certificate UUID, which it warns you will only be rendered once. Then you add each gift certificate to the first cart until your balance is negative $15 to cover shipping. Now you can proceed to checkout. You'd think it was the least-converting system ever devised, but the extra %600 discount on top of the standard overseas drug discounting is a powerful motivator.
- petercooper 17y agoSWIM doesn't know if it's a country-by-country thing but they noticed that if you ignore the gift certificate stuff and just carry on through as doing a "credit card" order, they'll take the details direct anyway. SWIM is not sure what the point of them mentioning the gift certificate stuff was..
