Modafinil 200 mg
200 mg is the standard, clinically studied dose of Modafinil — one tablet before 10 AM delivers 12–15 hours of steady wakefulness. Here is what it costs per tablet, which brand to pick, and when a smaller dose makes more sense.

Modafinil 200 mg is the standard dose. It is the strength used in the majority of published clinical trials and the one most OzModafinil customers settle on after their first week. A single 200 mg tablet taken in the morning produces 10–15 hours of sustained alertness without the jitter-and-crash cycle of caffeine. Almost every brand we stock — Modalert 200, Modvigil 200, Modafresh 200 — is built around this 200 mg tablet, which also makes it the easiest dose to split in half for a 100 mg trial. Below we cover per-tablet value, brand choice, how to split a tablet cleanly, and the situations where you should step down to 100 mg.
What 200 mg Costs Per Tablet
The honest way to compare Modafinil is per tablet, not per pack. Larger packs almost always drop the unit price, so a bigger order is usually the cheapest way to buy 200 mg.
Across our current range, genuine 200 mg tablets start from as little as A$0.73 per tablet on our largest packs. Because live pricing changes with pack size and any active promotion, we show the exact per-tablet figure on every product page — always check there before you order.
Worked example of the maths you can do yourself: if a pack lists a total price and a tablet count, divide one by the other to get the per-tablet cost, then compare that number across pack sizes. The unit price on each product page already does this for you so you can compare brands side by side in seconds.
Which 200 mg Brand Should You Choose?
Every 200 mg brand contains the same active molecule and is bioequivalent. The difference is manufacturer, price tier, and excipients.
Modalert 200
Sun Pharma's flagship and the most-prescribed generic Modafinil worldwide. Reliable onset, smooth effect curve, and the benchmark other brands are measured against.
Modalert Australia →Modvigil 200
HAB Pharma's value option — bioequivalent to Modalert at a lower per-tablet cost. Our best-seller by volume for buyers who want the same 200 mg for less.
Modvigil Australia →Artvigil 150
An armodafinil alternative at 150 mg. Armodafinil is the longer-acting R-enantiomer, so 150 mg roughly matches 200 mg of standard Modafinil with a smoother, longer tail.

Splitting a 200 mg Tablet
The single cheapest way to trial Modafinil is to halve a 200 mg tablet into two 100 mg doses.
Use the score line down the centre of the tablet. Most 200 mg tablets are scored specifically so they snap cleanly into two even halves.
For the most even split, use an inexpensive pill cutter from any chemist rather than a knife. Store the spare half in the blister or a dry container.
Two 100 mg doses from one tablet effectively halves your per-dose cost while you learn how Modafinil affects you.

When to Reduce Your Dose
200 mg suits most people, but it is not a fixed target. Consider stepping down to 100 mg if any of the following apply to you:
- Persistent headaches or nausea that do not resolve with hydration and a light breakfast.
- Difficulty sleeping even when you dose before 10 AM — a smaller dose clears your system sooner.
- Feeling wired or over-focused rather than calmly productive.
- You are older, lighter, or sensitive to stimulants — a lower dose is a sensible starting point.
- You only need a half-day of focus rather than a full 12–15 hours.
Many long-term users find that 100 mg delivers most of the benefit with fewer side effects, so it is worth testing the lower dose before assuming you need the full tablet. Never exceed 400 mg in a 24-hour period, and take regular breaks (a 5-on / 2-off pattern is common) to keep tolerance low.
