I have a handful of small white round pills with J on one side and 18 on the other. I cannot find this exact configuration on any website. The closest I can find is J 10 or J 5, which are Donepezil. Based on other evidence I suspect it may be Modafinil but am unable to verify this. ## It is modafinil 100% I have a hundred or so of them Guaranteed ## What is the mg of them I have some also but have no idea ## J 18 is modafinil in the 100mg configuration. Cheers. ## Do you know which manufacturer makes them with J18 specifically. ## AURO PHARMA This is a Canadian Manufacturer ## Yes it’s Modafinil. I’m in Canada. And take it.

He has mild AD and was given Cloraz Dipot at first for anexiety. Next appt. few days later gave him Donepezil . He wanted the anexiety pill but still has to take the donepezil before going to bed. ## How long would a side effect like dizziness last if someone was wrongly given 28 Donepezil tablets instead of their usual Montelukast asthma tablets, if they then had 14 of the correct tablets.
