Waklert: Uses and Benefits of this Powerful Cognitive Enhancer

Bio-hacking is not a means to try absurd or dangerous tricks on your body’s biology. Instead, it is a means to make use of smart, effective and most importantly, safe ways to change your body’s biology in order to feel your best.

The biological clock of our body maintains our sleep/wake/work cycles. But as we grow older and assume certain responsibilities, the biological clock gets affected by the circumstances we are living in.

We cannot get rid of our duties as we have to keep pace with this rapid-pacing world. But what we can do is use safe and effective bio-hacking measures in order to sustain our energy, despite the fatigue and tiredness.

Smart drugs are one such option which can promote wakefulness and boost your energy without any side effects. These medications, however, should be taken according to a doctor’s prescription only.

Depending on the health condition and tolerance, a doctor usually prescribes smart drugs. One of the popular smart drugs that can deal with your fatigue is Waklert, a brand name of Armodafinil.

Waklert:  Uses and Benefits

Waklert is a wake-promoting agent that works by directly targeting the brain cells. Waklert inhibits the reuptake of dopamine (a neurotransmitter) into the nerves by increasing its amount in the brain. As more dopamine keeps circulating in the brain, we feel more active and energetic. Individual results may vary depending on the health condition and a person’s cognitive response.

Some of the key benefits of Waklert are-

•    A lower dose of Waklert is enough to make you feel distinctively wakeful as compared to a higher dose of other smart drugs like Modafinil.

•    It helps to increase your focus and concentration power while carrying out tasks.

•    In most cases, this medication has also proved to improve the reasoning skills.

•    Excess fatigue is no longer a problem as this medication can fight it off easily. It enables you to resume your duties without any hindrance.

•    It also aids in the treatment of ADHD (attention deficit hyperactive disorder) and helps improve

 the symptoms.

Dosing Instruction:

•    The ideal dosage for Waklert is 150 mg which can be taken with or without food.

•    For people suffering from excessive daytime sleepiness and sleep apnea, it should be taken early in the morning.

•    For people with shift work disorder, it should be taken 1 hour prior to their shift work.

•    Do not increase or decrease the dose without the prior supervision of the doctor.

•    Also, do not use Waklert longer than directed as it can be habit-forming.
