The Telegraph is reporting that a medicine originally designed to treat Alzheimer’s is currently being re-developed into a weaker “lifestyle pill.” The new pill aims to enhance memory in otherwise healthy adults.
Why take it? Suppose you have an important exam or business presentation the next day and you want an extra edge.
The drawbacks? You’d be putting yourself at risk for the side effects of a drug that you don’t actually need.
You can find the whole story here: ‘Memory pill’ that could help with exam revision could be available soon.

Whoa! I thought I was the first one to think about this memory pill! It would be great for exams but I wouldn’t like to have a perfect score then the day after u get a stroke! Boooo! Let me just study again….
If that’s true, the potential for abuse is going to be staggering. I think the temptation for a lot of people would be too much.

I didn’t even know that you could buy memory pills. Frankly, I think that people tend to take way too many pills. Happy pills, sleeping pills, diet pills, add pills, etc…
