Hello A friend of mine got back from Bogota and that His Lawyer was given something that made him lose all memory of what happened to him he was at a club was the last thing he can remember.He was robbed and left miles from the club. Police say he was drugged and robbed my People who target Americans could the drug be Scopolamine Hydrobromide ? ## I'm doubtful that Scopolamine would cause such effects, because it would probably require too large of a dosage. It was more than likely something such as Rohypnol, which is also called the date rape drug, because it causes such effects and requires only a small dosage to do so. Are there any other questions or comments? ## I hear 5 milligrams would do it?Thanks for the reply Joe

is anyone being prescribed scopolamine off-label for depression? the NIMH is doing clinical trials for same and apparently it works, however my p-doc won't prescribe it for me. ## Since it is only in clinical trials, this does not necessarily mean that it works for depression. The trials may be showing some positive results, so far, but there is a lot more involved to making sure it is working and safe to be used that way. As to your doctor not prescribing it, that is entirely up to him. He is not obligated to prescribe something, just because you learned some information on it and want him to do so. What are you currently taking? ## Yes. I was in the study back in 2006 and have been successfully depression free thanks to scopolamine, taken only for a few days every 3-4 months, with...

Can morphine and Scopolamine Lorazepam be mixed for a 70 year old man with terminal cancer? ## I looked up these medications myself and could not find any indications for why they could not be used together! From what I have read, the one medication of course is for pain and the other is a patch that is worn behind the ear which is given to help alleviate nausea ..... however I am not in the health care field whatsoever and you really should be calling the doctor if these medications were not proscribed to him by the doctor that is treating him! I would not have answered at all except that I felt the need to say something under the circumstances! Know that there are many of us that care dearly for one another and I am praying for you all!
