API Intermediate Description: Deoxy-modafinil isn't a recognized drug; you likely mean Modafinil, a wakefulness-promoting agent used for narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder (SWSD), and as an adjunct for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) to combat excessive daytime sleepiness, and also off-label for conditions like ADHD, depression fatigue, and cognitive enhancement. It helps people stay awake and alert, but doesn't cure underlying sleep disorders.
