Wakefulness agents and cognition medicines at PCTMart

This category brings together medicines that act on alertness and cognition, and they are not a single class. Modafinil, stocked at 100MG and 200MG, and armodafinil at 50MG and 150MG, are wakefulness-promoting agents approved for narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder and obstructive sleep apnoea. A combination of the two is also carried. Separately there are the medicines used in dementia: donepezil at 5MG and 10MG, memantine at 5MG and 10MG, and rivastigmine. Citicoline and piracetam sit alongside them. Pramipexole, used in Parkinson's disease and restless legs, is also grouped here, as is tianeptine.

An honest note on the wakefulness agents

The honest position on the wakefulness agents is that most people buying them do not have narcolepsy. Used for study or long working hours, they are being used outside what they were approved for, and the evidence that they improve performance in rested, healthy people is considerably weaker than their reputation suggests. What they reliably do is delay sleep, which has its own cost. They also raise heart rate and blood pressure in some people, interact with hormonal contraception by reducing its effectiveness, and carry a rare but serious rash risk that warrants stopping immediately.

The dementia medicines work differently

The dementia medicines work differently again: they are started low and increased in steps, often cause nausea early on, and are assessed over months rather than days. They are not interchangeable with the wakefulness agents in any sense.

Finding your molecule

If you have a diagnosis and know which molecule you take, the active ingredient filter lists every brand of it we stock. If you do not, this is a category where a conversation with a doctor is genuinely worth having first, because persistent tiredness has causes worth identifying rather than masking. All stock ships from India through licensed distributors with at least twelve months of shelf life remaining.

Sourcing, expiry dates and delivery

Every listing shows the molecule, the strength and the pack size, and the guaranteed minimum expiry date appears before you add anything to the basket.
