There has been a huge rise in Uk students taking cognitive enhancers over the last two years.
Students and exausted workers have been abusing stimulants for years. This trend that started in America, has become almost the norm for British University students in their run up to their finals.
These modern drugs are more effective than they once were - and less likely to make you feel awful afterwards.
The abuse of Mondafinil and Ritalin (known as kiddie coke) could become a major problem. Both drugs allow you to sleep 4 hours or less, a night and still enable you to wake up refreshed.
Seems that there is a lot of pressure being put on Doctors by parents and students to prescribe Ritalin, because they think everybody elses children are taking it.
Here in the Uk its easy to buy in the street. Costing about £3 per pill.
Searching the Internet I found an online pharmacy in Turkey that would supply both drugs.
Right now there are a lot more 'mind sharpening' drugs in the pipeline. The Alzheimers' drug Donepezil has been shown to delay loss of mental ability in patients, and very much improve memory in normal patients without dementia.
A very new as yet unlicensed class of drugs called ampakines, enhances learning capacity and memory in healthy users, as well as increasing attention span and alertness, are in the pipeline.
*** I think there could be problems if more people are tempted by the chance to become sharper smarter and more alert, just by taking whats on offer in a tablet?
