The FDA has decided that this a substance the needs restricting from general consumption for a reason wrong or no. Was that the right decision or wrong I don't know. But I have to assume they have some reason but it would be enough for me to take seriously the possible consequences of having a adverse reaction when dealing with the lives of OTHER PEOPLE if he had started his self experiment on his own time that would be one thing but he was treating other people and that makes this inexcusable. had he tried it in a safe controlled situation, then determined it to be safe and used it at work then I wouldn't care but he didn't. bottom line he put other people at risk.
- ActorNightly 5y agoYour statement is essentially "given OPs current state and prior probability of him making a mistake on the job, and the action of taking modafinil, that probability increases given the OP takes that action. Which is not an accurate statement. Modafinil is a nootropic, which means that it can increase attention, therefore decreasing the chance of a mistake. The probability that someone will experience more wakefulness and attention is high in this regard. And it being FDA approved lowers the probability of an adverse reaction that can cause someone to not be in the right mind and make mistakes to a very small number, which accounts for things like heart conditions.
