Smart Drugs: A Review

Abstract

Smart drugs can change the way our mind functions. Smart drugs are also known as nootropics, which literally means the ability to bend or shape our mind. Smart drugs are classified into two main categories. They are classified based on their pharmacological action and their availability. The stimulant category of drugs is highly used and misused. There has been a rampant increase in the sale of smart drugs, which could be attributed to the rise in competition all over the world. Two major criteria for selecting a good drug are its mechanism of action and bioavailability. Owing to the short-term benefits of smart drugs, many countries have openly accepted this concept. There is still no concrete scientific evidence backing the safety and efficacy of these drugs. Some believe that this is just a fad that will soon pass, while others believe that this is something that will revolutionize our future.
