Not sure what Artvigil is?
We will review everything Artvigil without getting bogged down in too much detail.
We found a couple of interesting facts that surprised us while researching this blog!
Welcome to Afinil Express and our review of the Nootropic Artvigil.
What is Artvigil?
Artvigil is a generic version of Armodafinil, the longer-lasting, more refined derivative of Modafinil.
Armodafinil is also sold as Waklert and Nuvigil.
Disclaimer, We are big fans of Artvigil for the work environment.
HAB Pharma makes Artvigil, and most would agree it’s slightly different from Waklert and Nuvigil.
With Artvigil, many people get less of that speedy feeling with the other Armodafinil.
We like to refer to it as a work-friendly supplement.
Where does Artvigil come from?
The original Armodafinil is Nuvigil, sometimes five times more expensive than Waklert and Artvigil.
Armodafinil was first refined from Modafinil in France in the mid-two thousand’s.
And once the patent expired for Nuvigil, other companies could make their version of Armodafinil, like HAB Pharma’s Artvigil.
What does Artvigil do?
Artvigil is designed to promote wakefulness, alertness, and focus.
It’s used by air traffic controllers, fighter pilots, elite soldiers, and people like us!
For the last 11 years, we have tried and tested many of the leading Nootropics; it must be well over one hundred by now.
Anybody who opens our fridge in the office is usually shocked by how many supplements we have.
The comment we get the most is, “Do you take all of these?” The answer is yes.
We take a range of supplements, but not all of them simultaneously, and most are for testing purposes only.
But after all these years, one Nootropic that is always in our fridge is Artvigil.
Artvigil is our go-to daily Nootropic; it never lets us down!

Where to Buy Artvigil
Many online suppliers are selling Artvigil. Unfortunately, many sell low-quality pills, and a few are even scams.
Some Modafinil vendors are notorious for poor customer service, long transport times, and questionable payment practices.
We stick to our preferred suppliers listed below for these reasons and more.
Why Is Artvigil So Popular?
1. It’s Cheaper Than Other Versions of Armodafinil
- Artvigil is the most inexpensive of the three and without sacrificing any quality.
- Bonus, with most Modafinil vendors, if you decide to order 100 tablets or more, you will receive 30 extra pills for free.
2. HAB Pharma Has a Good Reputation
- HAB Pharma makes Artvigil and is famous worldwide for high-quality Pharmaceuticals.
3. It’s not as Stimulating as Waklert or Nuvigil
- To many, like us, Waklert and Nuvigil are too strong and feel like Adderall. They are very speedy and can cause anxiety. Not ideal for an office environment.
Pro Tip, stay well hydrated when using any of the Modafinil. It’s been suggested that Modafinil can dehydrate the brain.
Note I could not find any peer-reviewed papers to confirm this. But staying well hydrated is a good idea!

Beginners Guide to Artvigil
We recently received an email from Shane, a new customer of ours.
Shane commented that he had noticed some unwanted side effects from Modalert 200mg.
He was talking a lot more and uncomfortably sweating all the time.
Being new to Modafinil, Shane wasn’t sure if the tablets suited him.
We advised Shane to try half a tablet first, but we got a quick reply saying he had already tried that.
We then suggested buying a small amount of Waklert and Artvigil and taking note of the side effects of each tablet.
Fast forward a month, and we received these results from Shane.
