Drugs and medicines are a complicated part of life in the Orion Spur. Depending on the jurisdiction, there may be no rules--or extreme and severe prohibitions even on the mildest of substances.
Drug Categories
Drugs can be divided roughly into several categories, depending on their danger level, uses, and availability.
Intoxicating Drinks
Often consumed socially, these drinks tend to be legal. However, they cause impairment of the mind and senses, and may be banned from drinking on-duty.
- Ethanol
- Butanol
- Toothpaste
- Royal Vaurca Jelly
Stimulant Drinks
Often ubiquitous; enjoyed by all ages; occasionally illegal regardless.
- Caffeine
- Energy Drinks
- Mate de Coca
- Diesel
- Koko Reed Juice
Group 6: Medication (Non-Prescription)
Group 7 is the sort of medication you would expect in a home first-aid kit. Widely available from vendors, shops, in emergency cupboards, and on request at most medical clinics, over-the-counter medication is relatively safe and requires no prescription in most places. Overdoses tend to be annoying or painful but not deadly. When they come in injectable form, they are often distributed in autoinjectors to be used by the unskilled. Particularly strict jurisdictions may require a prescription for all medications regardless of safety.
- Antidexafen. Cough syrup. Can be abused if overdosed.
- Cetahydramine. Used to treat allergies and as a sleeping pill.
- Dexalin. Phoron-based medication that encourages blood oxygenation. Available in oxygen deprivation emergency kits. Unlike most OTC medications, Dexalin can cause brain and eye damage in an overdose; but it is so life-saving that it is available nonetheless.
- Dylovene. Anti-toxin; very safe, carried and used by personnel that work with toxic substances.
- Hyronalin. Anti-radiation medication commonly available to personnel at risk of radiation exposure.
- Inaprovaline. All-purpose stabilizer and mild painkiller. Distributed in emergency kits.
- Oculine. Refined oculine is generally a prescribed medication, but carrots have been genetically modified so that eating them helps heal mild eye damage. An odd example of a medication that is over-the-counter... at the cafeteria.
- Perconol is a mild painkiller that also treats fever and inflammation. It can be abused if taken in an overdose, which causes hallucinations. Low doses are generally over-the-counter, but injectable or high-dose perconol tends to be by prescription.
- Pneumalin helps heal lung damage and can save a life if administered in an emergency to someone who has been exposed to vacuum. It is available in first-aid kits to workers in EVA jobs such as Mining.
- Regenerative-Muscular Tissue Supplements help mitigate an off-worlder human's muscle weakness in high-gravity areas. They are generally either widely prescribed or freely available.
- Tricordrazine is an older, safer, and slower version of bicaridine and kelotane. It is safe enough to be used as a food or drink ingredient. Liquid, injectable tricordrazine tends to be prescription-only, though.
- Verunol Syrup induces vomiting. An unpleasant, though effective, way to empty the stomach in an emergency.
