Can armodafinil affect personality?

The main effects of armodafinil, which include products like Artvigil 150, are on alertness and wakefulness, but it can also momentarily alter several personality features.  Because Artvigil 150 reduces fatigue and improves attention, some users report feeling more motivated, confident, and sociable.  Others, however, can suffer from mood swings, anxiety, or irritability, particularly after using large dosages or for an extended period of time.  These are emotional or behavioral changes related to the drug's influence on brain chemistry rather than actual personality changes.  Because individual reactions differ and the long-term consequences on personality are not completely understood, it is crucial to take Artvigil 150 under medical supervision.
