If you could take a pill
that would help you study and get better grades, would you? Off-label
use of “smart drugs” – pharmaceuticals meant to treat disorders like
ADHD, narcolepsy, and Alzheimer’s – are becoming increasingly popular
among college students hoping to get ahead, by helping them to stay
focused and alert for longer periods of time. But is this cheating?
Should their use as cognitive enhancers be approved by the FDA, the
medical community, and society at large? Do the benefits outweigh the
risks? Source.
