(modafinil) promotes alertness and treats narcolepsy, OSA, and shift work sleep disturbance. Modafinil may indirectly affect metabolism, however, it is not meant to target metabolic functions. Modafinil raises dopamine and norepinephrine levels in the brain, which may increase heart rate and energy consumption. Like other stimulants, this may slightly enhance metabolic activity and calorie burn. Some users report decreased appetite, which may affect weight. However, modafinil is not for weight reduction or metabolic improvement. The main purpose is to boost alertness and reduce daytime drowsiness. Consult a doctor for personalized advice on metabolism or weight.
