Abstract

The article presents data from a study of the effect of the drug modafinil on neurodynamic performance indicators, determined by the method of T. D. Loskutova, in persons under conditions of sleep deprivation.

The negative impact of being in conditions of sleep deprivation on indicators of the level of reaction and functionality was shown.

Data were obtained on the preservation of the indicators of the reaction rate, the functional level of the system and the level of reaction at the same level after taking the drug modafinil at a dose of 200 mg in the evening on the eve of a sleepless night.

Taking the drug modafinil did not cause any adverse reactions.
