Questions About Adrafinil?

Posted by PaulB on June 13, 2001, at 16:51:58

I have done a search and found a few postings concerning the smart-drugs Adrafinil and Modafinil and hope some advice can be offered on some queries I have about Adrafinil.
I am trying to find out about the mechanism of action of Adrafinil. I am interested in Adrafinil but curioius about exactly how it works. I suspect that it is an agonist of the alpha-1 receptors and works in a smilar way to Buspirone 'mimicking' the activity of noradrenaline at these receptors but Im not sure. Modafinil may work differently I think but Im not sure about this either. Difficult drugs to get concrete info one so any links would be apprececiated.
The other thing which interested me was why Adrafinil can take days to months to start working. Why such a wide lapse in possible onset of effect. My guess was the v-short half-life of Adrafinil. For people not taking it more regularly it will take longer.
I have some other queries but Ill wait to see if theres help amongst Dr-Bobs members first?
