New drugs that can boost brainpower could be given to children by pushy parents, it was claimed yesterday.
There are also fears that high- flying professionals might take the "cognition enhancers" to gain a competitive edge at work. The warnings came as Government backed researchers examine the potential of the drugs which previous research has shown to improve memory, concentration and learning ability.

What are the side-effects of the magic pill? Worse memory than before once you stop taking it?

Side effects are scary. I hardly take aspirin because of it. I deem beer OK though!

I never take Tylenol though because of conflicts with the previous drug called beer! Beer makes all things better in time... :p That is good beer. If you think Budweizer is good beer, then you don't know what good beer is...
