> For example, it is legal to possess and use Modafinil in the United Kingdom without a prescription, but not in United States.

Adrafinil, a prodrug to modafinil, is legal without prescription in the United States.

There are also analogue RC's such as Flmodafinil that fall into that mostly legal grey zone. I haven't personally tried any, but I've heard Flmodafinil in particular is both stronger and easier on the liver.

My understanding is that while Adrafil breaks down to modifinal, there is more stress put on the liver/kidneys.

This is what I've read as well. I have been unable, however to find much information on how bad it is comparatively. Is it much worse than having a couple beers everyday?
