Loquisitan is a neurological stimulant designed to increase focus, productivity and memory retention. This drug is legal on most worlds and generally easy to obtain given that it’s targeted towards students and professionals where it is sold under the name ‘DriveX’
When one takes a dose of DriveX, they will find that their ability to focus—no matter the task—is increased, therefore improving productivity. DriveX also enhances memory retention making it a popular drug for studying. It is recommended that DriveX is taken with caution in mind given that it allows the user to focus heavily on whatever they’re doing despite the task. If one takes DriveX at an inopportune time, they may find themselves focused on a task they didn’t intend to spend their time on.
DriveX has a wide array of side effects including:
- Mild-Moderate Side Effects:
Anxiety - Dry mouth
- Agitation/irritability
- Restless/nervousness
- Heart palpitations
- Loss of appetite
- Fever and/or chills
- Headache
- Nausea and stomach pain
- Increased blood pressure/heart rate
- Mood swings
[*]Severe and potentially lethal side effects include:
- Hypertension
- Severe weight loss
- Kidney disease
- Stroke
- Cardiac death
Many of those who take DriveX will not experience any side effects or will only experience mild side effects. More common side effects include mood swings (anxiety, depression, agitation, etc.) and gastrointestinal issues (loss of appetite, nausea, dry mouth, etc.). These side effects typically subside once use of the drug is discontinued. Severe side effects are rare and generally do not occur with repeated low doses or single doses (unless the single dose is incredibly large and falls outside of recommended dosage guidelines). Severe side effects may occur with consistently high doses of DriveX and include cardiac, kidney and neurological issues that may lead to permanent disability or death.
Those widely available, some worlds have placed restrictions on the drug due to potentially dangerous side effects and will not allow sale of the drug to individuals below a certain age or without a prescription from a doctor. Cornerstone Scientific, the manufacturer of DriveX recommends taking the drug under a doctor’s guidance but supplies DriveX to nearly any interested parties regardless of intention.
