There are two issues with most 'cognitive enhancement' drug regimens. On the one hand they are risky, potentially triggering or exacerbating existing mental health and neurological issues. On the other if it becomes an expectation that people will push their biology to it's limits for the benefit of their employers... we all suffer.
