Modafinil belongs to which schedule classification?

CII
CIII
CIV
CV

The correct answer is: CII

Modafinil is classified as a Schedule IV controlled substance. It is used primarily to treat conditions like narcolepsy, sleep apnea, and shift work sleep disorder. The Schedule IV classification indicates that while modafinil has accepted medical uses, it has a lower potential for abuse compared to substances classified as Schedule I-III. This classification is crucial for managing how the drug can be prescribed and dispensed in a pharmacy setting. Therefore, understanding the scheduling of medications helps ensure that they are used safely and responsibly, minimizing risks associated with abuse and dependence. It's important for pharmacists and healthcare professionals to be aware of these regulations to maintain compliance with state and federal laws governing controlled substances.
