เพื่อๆไม่รู้มีใครสนใจตามเรื่องนี้ไหม คาดว่าคุณคริปน่าจะเคยอ่าน
เลยอยากถามดู
คือ มียาบางตัวในเมืองนอก กินแล้วเสริมสมาธิ ความตั้งใจ
บางตัวรับประทานแล้วช่วยให้มีความจำดีขึ้น และสติปัญญาเพิ่มขึ้น
ในขณะที่ได้รับยา หลายปีก่อนยากลุ่มนี้เคยถูกตราหน้าว่า ไม่ปลอดภัย
และเป็นอันตราย แต่เมื่อสองปีมานี้ ก็เริ่มมีกระแสในการใช้ยาเหล่านี้อีกครั้ง
อยากทราบว่าในปัจจุบัน ตัวยามีเพิ่มหรือพัฒนาไปมากกว่าสมัย
เมื่อสิบกว่าปีที่แล้ว แค่ไหนครับ และในเมืองไทยมีตัวไหนจำหน่ายบ้าง
หรือว่าต้องนำเข้าครับ
นับถือ

Intelligence drugs could be 'common as coffee'
By Nicole Martin

It sounds like the stuff of science fiction: a new generation of drugs that make people more intelligent.
But they are precisely the kind of mind-altering substances that students and businessman could be taking in the future to pass exams and boost work performance.
Foresight, a Government think-tank, believes that "cognitive enhancers" could be "as common as coffee" within a couple of decades to help a person think faster, relax and sleep more efficiently.
The Department of Health has become so concerned about these drugs that it has asked the Academy of Medical Sciences (AMS) to assess the potential impact of the substances, some of which are licensed in Britain to treat narcolepsy or acute tiredness.
They are already being bought illegally over the internet in the US by people who think they will enhance their performance in the classroom and in the office.
Researchers at Cambridge University recently examined the effects of modafinil, a drug available in Britain for people who fall asleep involuntarily, and found that it dramatically improved performance.
Within two hours of taking the drug, healthy volunteers were better at remembering strings of numbers, were less impulsive and had a better short-term memory.
AMS has already held a series of workshops across the country to gauge the public's view. Apart from concerns over the possible long-term damage to health, it found people were generally uninformed. One woman wondered whether she would be putting her children at a disadvantage if she did not give them access to such drugs.
The AMS study, which will be published this year, follows on from research by the Foresight think-tank published two years ago.
In addition to drugs that boosted pleasure and sexual performance, the Foresight research raised the possibility of drugs that caused selective amnesia, for instance of a bomb attack, after the discovery that drugs called beta blockers could reduce memories of stressful situations.
The report stated: "In a world that is increasingly non-stop and competitive, the use of such substances may move from the fringe to the norm, with cognition enhancers used as coffee is today." Other possibilities, it said, would be drug testing of children before they took exams to ensure that some did not cheat with cognitive enhancers, or "cogs".
"The ethical debate about whether or not to use drugs to improve performance in normal schoolchildren and students will probably be resolved over the next 20 years," said the report. "Similarly, there will be continued debate about the ethics of using cognition enhancers in the workplace."
One problem raised by the report is that the pharmaceutical industry may change its focus from drugs that treat mental health to cognitive enhancers.
Nick Hillier, an AMS spokesman, said: "We are looking at how these drugs will potentially impact on our society.
"For example, will students be taking 'smart pills' before an exam to help them recall facts and retain information?"

London, Dec 15 (ANI): A group of neuroscientists, psychiatrists and ethicists have suggested that the society should be more open to the use of drugs that boost brain power rather than staying away from them.
In a recent survey, it was found that almost 25 per cent of students at US universities bought Ritalin or Adderall - prescription drugs to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder.
And the students routinely buy these drugs on black markets to boost memory and concentration. The stimulant Modafinil has also been touted as a mind enhancer.
However, after studying the effect of some of these drugs on cognitive function in healthy people, Henry Greely of Stanford Law School in California, and colleagues have said that cognitive enhancers found to be safe and effective should be welcomed, not feared.
Also, the researchers have called for more research on the effects of such drugs, which should also look into the drugs” safety.
“This isn”t like steroids and sports… enhancement is not a dirty word,” New Scientist magazine quoted Greely as saying.
He further said that using drugs in this way was not “unnatural,” and it was not like steroids and sports. Enhancement is not a dirty word.
The researchers have claimed that a safe pill shouldnt be perceived differently to other strategies already in use to improve the minds, like a good night’’s sleep or a strong cup of coffee.
They said that inexpensive drugs might also hold the potential to be a more egalitarian way to get ahead than expensive tutoring.
Neuroethicist Julian Savulescu of the University of Oxford recommended that brain pills could give that extra edge to nations whose citizens are willing to raise their intelligence. (ANI)
